Description
Summary:wandering’ is a semi-autobiographical graphic novel that follows May Yee, a young Burmese TCK coming to terms with her identity and the relationships with people around her, shaped by her experiences of living in Myanmar in the early 2000s and then moving to Singapore with her family. The story will be told through sections that have different print formats and sizes, and each of these works will be inspired in terms of form and narrative content by items from Burmese visual culture. Through these visual and narrative elements, ‘wandering’ hopes to communicate a more personal and unique experience of moving from Myanmar, while addressing the universal TCK experiences of growing up in two countries at the same time.
