'Who Are My People?' is an ongoing community archive and installation that grows from my own history of queer kinship. It gathers stories, images and fragments shared by South Asian queer people who build family through choice and care. The work develops through interviews, portraits, illustrations, personal archives and small collaborative gestures made with contributors who wish to participate.

​

The archive is community led. Contributors choose what they share, how they appear and whether they remain anonymous. Consent, refusal and withdrawal are respected throughout. Contributions can be anonymous or pseudonymous. Nothing is collected without permission, and contributors retain full agency over authorship, visibility and withdrawal. The aim is not to document people as subjects but to build a shared record of how queer kinship feels, forms and holds.

​

This project is personal for me. I have relied on chosen family for most of my adult life, and the work grows from the relationships that shaped me. Who Are My People? creates a space where our stories can exist with care rather than judgment, and where queer memory is protected and authored from within the community.
