Y U R I M A R D E R
examines the difficulties faced while trying to
communicate through language and across
cultural borders. Each subject in his series of
portraits of those who have been exiled from
their homeland is asked to consider the basic
question, what happens to the mother tongue
when it exists, separated or unused, in a state
of cultural isolation? "The Exile Project
presents a collection of faces, ages, texts and
calligraphies, all striving to tell a single story,
all hoping to give a little more meaning to the
vast context of language, loss and identity."
