LALI KHALID

‘Home. In my heart, beating far away’ is a narrative collage of photographs, captured over a span of ten years. This first monograph examines Lali’s exploration as an immigrant, grappling with issues of identity, home, family and diaspora. In her photographs, she illustrates complex challenges where she is continually shifting, trying to find new ways of retaining her identity in an environment of changing ideologies and perspectives. Khalid seeks to bridge two ends of the spectrum, the fading past and the vague future. The images, when viewed without a predetermined perception, reveal the evolving stories embedded in them.
