'who we are': this piece invites us on a journey of introspection. Like gazing into a mirror that distorts and reveals simultaneously, 'Who We Are' prompts us to see ourselves through an alternate lens, unearthing previously unseen dimensions of reality. As we engage with this photograph, we're encouraged to question the intricate layers that form our sense of self.
