The Moon Belongs to Everyone

The Moon Belongs to Everyone is a ‘meditation on the contemporary experience of migration, of shifting continents, and fractured mindsets.’ Mehrfar’s work acts as an allegory for an increasingly ubiquitous, non-specific, global identity; an unidentifiable position she found herself in after immigrating to Australia. ‘The Moon Belongs to Everyone attempts to visualize these contemporary global citizens— individuals whose identities are no longer defined by national borders, but rather by the experience of migration. The subjects included in the project hail from different parts of the world. They don’t know one another, nor do they share the same heritage. But they have all found themselves caught in a similar liminal space — hovering somewhere between there and here.’
