A displaced person is split into many parts, constantly adjusting, performing in a new environment. These performances are influenced by different cultures, beliefs, political and artistic views. After surviving a war I am living a second life, born again. Displacement created new experiences and views. I am constantly reinventing my identity and trying to fit to this time and space.
