What is the first thing that comes to mind when people ask you, Who are you? Silvia, like many others who have emigrated to the United States, is compelled to assume a new identity—a name, a birthdate, a past that is not hers and that she knows nothing about—to adapt to an unfamiliar world. Her transformation into “Daisy” becomes a layered construction of self, where each gesture and word shape a narrative that questions her sense of belonging.

Through video, sound, and archival footage, this piece not only documents her personal experience but also examines how identity and belonging are reshaped across borders. It reflects resilience and highlights the profound impact of community narratives on our understanding of self and transformation.
