Finding Comfort Under the Sky is a photographic series that seeks to reconcile the cultural duality of my experience between the Philippines and Canada. The work foregrounds objects I brought from Cebu, such as an old passport photograph, an heirloom rosary, and a blue collarless henley shirt. They carry personal histories, but their meanings shift when removed from their original context. Through photography, I recontextualize them within my immediate environment and begin to consider how these fragments from my past could coexist with my present life in Toronto.
