Ausgangslage der Arbeit sind verallgemeinerte Darstellungen über Migrantinnen und ihre in der Regel als rückstandig beschriebenen Herkunftskulturen, mit denen u.a. soziale Ungleichheiten legitimiert werden, sowie die in der Offentlichkeit vermittelte Annahme, dass sich so genannte Parallelgesellschaften bilden. Für die Arbeit haben Migrantinnen aus verschiedenen Herkunftskulturen fotografiert. Zu ihren Bildern wurden so genannte Fotointerviews geführt, in denen die Fotografinnen ihre eigenen Bilder erlautern. Zentraler Fokus der Arbeit ist ein exemplarisch ausgewahltes Foto, das als "Ausdrucksmittel" und "Erkenntnisquelle" bildanalytisch untersucht wird.
