Rotterdam is home to 172 different nationalities, making it one of the most diverse cities in the world. I want to capture this diversity in a series of portraits that will be exhibited throughout the city in 2024 and 2025.
———-
Think you, or someone you know, could be one of those faces? We’re seeking 172 individuals, one from each nationality, who are first-generation immigrants (not born in The Netherlands) shaping Rotterdam’s story.
Did you choose (or not choose) Rotterdam as your new beginning? What unique perspective do you bring? What threads connect you to your fellow citizens, despite your different backgrounds?
Share your story, share your face! Be part of this groundbreaking project, showcased across the city in 2025. Let’s celebrate the tapestry of experiences that make Rotterdam so special, reminding everyone: it’s not just a place, it’s a feeling, a shared journey, and a home for 172 stories like yours.
