Stigmatization and discrimination

Mischa Christen

How quickly do we judge someone based on their appearance? Our prejudices are influenced by external factors such as clothing or haircut. Based on such characteristics, we tend to give a stranger a negative or positive assessment within seconds. These photographs were taken on the way from my home in Lucerne to my studio in Emmenbrücke.
