Citizens of Limbo By Kelly Pickering
F
or my final year of my graphic design degree in Edinburgh, Scotland, we had to create a major project, where for a year we explored a topic in depth. So, naturally I decided to look into my upbringing being a third culture kid. This led me to my project concept where I explored how this type of nomadic childhood affects TCKs once they are adults and are having to figure out who they are and where they belong. In my project I am questioning whether there is a way that we can widen our definition of belonging to accept those that have fragmented belonging. Globalisation is creating a whole new side to belonging. Being a global citizen means you belong in multiple places. This idea is not yet well understood by the public.
