Suitcase

Christina Shi

Suitcase is an illustrated book that narrates my experience of coming to the United States from China. The book shows my emotional journey to find identity through the objects I have lost and obtained along the way. The online version of the illustration book exists as a digital zine with the traditional reading experience. The physical version of Suitcase will involve game-playing elements such as putting away illustration cards with certain objects, intending to engage the audience further.
