This project explores a form of femininity that moves between softness and resilience. Through touch, the hand becomes a vessel for emotion and unconscious gesture. It reveals fragility and unease while holding tension, aggression and raw resistance.
The project explores second-generation Wenzhounese youth in Prato, Italy, highlighting fluid identities shaped by transnational networks, mobility, and the negotiation of tradition and modernity.
These photographs are dedicated to my grandmother, the most tender yet strongest presence in my life.
