WIĊĊNA / OUR FACE was a project by Zvezdan Reljic that lead to a book of around 200 photographic portraits of individuals from different backgrounds, generations and ethnicities, many accompanied by a short caption taken from the individual’s answer to the often complicated question “Where are you from?” The book features aesthetical, anthropological and literary essays on aspects of physiognomy, identity and photography, each written in a different language that has influenced Malta throughout its history: Arabic (Walid Nabhan), English (Alexandra Pace), French (Philippe Parizot), Italian (Virginia Monteforte), Maltese (Leanne Ellul), and Spanish (Antoine Cassar).
