MFA|EDA 2016 Thesis Exhibition: Neither Here Nor There

Wei Wang: Neither Here Nor There
Migration is tied to the human spirit, which seeks adventure, pursues dreams, and finds reasons to hope even in the most adverse circumstances. Many Latinos from Mexico, Central America, and South America have made the decision to immigrate to the United States in recent years-whether legally or illegally. The ethics of migration are complex. There are also many perspectives on why people migrate, how people migrate, what impact migration has on receiving, transit and sending countries, and whether countries should encourage or limit migration. History should be recorded in this situation, also seeing through the story of ordinary people who are living in this situation.

The story is about a latino family who crossed the border coming to U.S has been separated from their family in Central America for seventeen years, and how they bound up with each other between two countries.
