About the Photographer
Maria Aleksanyan is a photographer whose work explores the everyday routines and textures of British life, seen through the lens of an outsider turned insider. Her artistic perspective is deeply shaped by the experience of immigration — the process of building a new home, forming a new identity, and learning to see the world anew through that transformation.
What began as a personal visual record of her arrival in the UK has gradually evolved into a broader reflection on belonging, daily life, and the quiet process of becoming rooted in a place that was once unfamiliar but now feels like home. Through her photography, Maria Aleksanyan captures the subtle intersections of memory, adaptation, and identity.
