I have returned to this assignment after a few years. I always enjoy learning new things about my students. They are such a diverse group of TCKs; representing a mosaic of cultural backgrounds, languages and experiences. I had them write artist statements in the form of a letter to explain the symbolism within the finished pieces.
This one, for me, seems to best illustrate the Third Culture Kid experience; in both the division and blending together of two identities.
