“As an immigrant, you’re always being tested outside of your comfort zone,” says photographer Olgaç Bozalp when we catch up about a new photo series he’s working on with filmmaker and photographer Osman Özel and stylist Raphael Hirsch, On Home: Leaving One For Another. Before Olgaç moved to London from Turkey a decade ago, he’d only been to one country outside of his homeland – Cyprus. He came to the UK without the language or anyone to welcome him, and immediately had to deal with being away from family and trying to assimilate. “But the biggest struggle is how to support yourself to stay here,” Olgaç tells It’s Nice That. “The hardest part about migration is not leaving, the hardest part is staying.”
