Close Enough 

personal work

 

This series starts with jokes between me and my friends. Since English is not my mother tongue, I often mispronounce words that sounds similar (to me). Like before we were about to head outside, I would comment on the weather, “Ughhh it’s so worm outside.” My friend will laugh “Yeah It’s kinda of warm today”. We would later joke about it. I view this creation as my way of owning a foreign language, speaking with an accent and mistakes unapologetically yet remaining open to improvement.
