An illustration commission for Scomodo.

A feature for an artist under 30 graphically represents the word “international” in its possible interpretations.

My initial idea was to explore a life of a third culture kid, which I could personally relate to. I’ve lived in several countries before and grew up with western and eastern culture at the same time. To add the confusion in my mental state, my parents also come from different cultural backgrounds which at times, befuddled me to say the least. After several tryouts, I decided to re-enact a day in my life while I was still studying in Amsterdam as it was the period when I had the most difficult identity crisis in my life.
