Third Culture
Like oil and water, the combination of two cultures is not a homogenous or analogous blend. The formation of a “3rd culture” is a never ending struggle to find the fulcrum on which both cultures can balance.
In an effort to enhance my investigation into the concept of “3rd culture” I combine two traditional practices; Aboriginal Dream Scape Painting, and the Swedish Graal Glassblowing methodology. Through telling my immigration story with this unfamiliar approach I synthetically create the struggle to find balance between two culturally rich practices.
