identity

the word ‘identity’ means the fact of being who or what a person or thing is. it is also been described ass, a person’s name and other facts about who they are. i would describe identity as everyones own individuality. characteristics of identity can include, race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, physical attributes, personality, political affiliations, religious beliefs, professional identities, and so on.

this image shows people expressing their own individuality as there identity through colourful clothing.

i was very interested in how Sam Contis explores identity in her own photography.
