Migration is a process of mourning, though not always visible, that leaves a mark on the immigrant’s identity, forcing them to reconfigure their sense of belonging while adapting to a new culture. Upon arriving in a new place, the immigrant confronts not only a new territory, but also a profound uncertainty: the fear of losing oneself amid the unknown. Identity, once a safe refuge, becomes fluid, fragile, and vulnerable. In this journey toward the unfamiliar, migration turns into a constant struggle, a mixture of hope and pain. And even when the immigrant adapts, they never cease to carry within them a fragment of the place where they were born.
