In Search of an Identity

By: Ray Chen, Sabrina Roberts, Rachel Lu

To be in between cultures feels like those moments between day and night, not fully one nor the other, but rather a vibrant sky defined by its own mix of colors. Its both a rewarding experience, with the ability to build cross cultural connections and possess multi-faceted skills; but also a lonely one, treading on undefined territory without its own community or set of guidelines.

These three pieces explore the experience of being cross-cultural, but as much as we are defined by our cultures, we are also seeking out those identities that make us who we are and how we fit in with the broad cultural narrative.

We ask: Who am I? Where do I come from? Where do I belong? Will I be accepted?
