Cultural Connection
Photographer: Vipul Sangoi
This ongoing project explores how young people from South Asian communities in Croydon negotiate their cultural identities in the UK.
The project is an opportunity for the young people to reflect on how they present themselves in different social settings. It provides a glimpse into the multiple identities they embody as they develop their own authentic sense of cultural connection.
