SUMMARY OF TASK
I found this task really interesting, and wanted to discover as many different kinds of groups as i could. It shows a uniqueness within many different people, and how people think about themselves and the world - whether it's good or bad. Belonging is an extremely important part of life, and whether you are born in to a particular group of people or you create a group to express your passions - groups play an important part in relating to other people and finding your place in the world.
