This body of work is an insight on the teenage experience, with each work portraying a common but also uniquely personal teenage struggle. From juggling the pressure of academic excellence to struggling to find a sense of belonging among peers, the drawings present a woven story that journeys a day-in-the-life of an Asian teenager and attempts to answer one guiding question: How does a multicultural background enhance identity-loss among the adolescence?
