Tariq Taray: Stateless
October 1 - December 15, 2018
A stateless person is someone who, under national laws, does not enjoy citizenship – the legal bond between a government and an individual – in any country. While some people are de jure or legally stateless persons (meaning they are not recognized as citizens under the laws of any state), many people are de facto or effectively stateless persons (meaning they are not recognized as citizens by any state even if they have a claim to citizenship under the laws of one of more states.) By letting his subjects dress and stand in a manner that suits their sense of themselves, Tariq captures the self-defined truth that was worth the sacrifice of leaving their home countries.
