The project documents the experiences of Afghan interpreters who were resettled to the U.K. through photo portraiture. The portraits have been edited in a manner to help anonymise the interpreters who have been at risk and who, potentially, have family in Afghanistan still under threat. The individual portraits are a composite of up to a dozen frames which have each been blurred or pixelated and then overlaid to present a final portrait. This process can also be seen as inflicting trauma on the portraits, in acknowledgement of their experiences.
