Third culture kids are individuals who have spent a significant part of their formative years living outside of their passport countries, often struggling to find their places in the world. These five artists—whose experiences span five continents and eight countries—invite viewers to celebrate the richness and diversity of our global community and consider new forms of cultural expression.
frequent goodbyes features artworks that highlight resilience, showcasing the diversity of cultural experiences and challenging the notion of a singular identity. The artworks on display offer a powerful testament to the human spirit, highlighting the strength and beauty that emerge from moments of transition. The curator and the five featured artists ask audiences to imagine belonging in a world where national boundaries are becoming more fluid, and to reflect on the many different ways we can connect with each other.
