It is an honor to be a friend of an extremely necessary museum and one of my favorites. Talking about immigration is not just about Britain, but something that is intrinsic to our species. This is a museum about us as humans.
Angélica Dass
Angélica Dass is an award-winning photographer born in Brazil and currently living in Madrid, Spain. Angélica’s practice combines photography with sociological research and public participation in defense of human rights globally. She is the creator of the internationally acclaimed Humanæ Project—a collection of portraits that reveal the diverse beauty of human colors. The initiative has traveled across six continents—from The World economic Forum in Davos to the pages of National Geographic, —to promote dialogue that challenges how we think about skin color and ethnic identity.
