Far from Home- Errant Alien

Being a foreigner from Taiwan, sometimes I feel I am like an errant alien in the U.S. I am still leading a vagrant life to pursuit my goal and look for my destination. Through a humorous and teasing way, it presents how I look different from and how I exist between others in a Western society. The SUV covered with pink Chinese brocade symbolizes myself, a Taiwanese girl, whose exterior looks meek but who is very strong inside. Even my appearance is Chinese (Taiwanese), but the way to make a living is Western. This pink-covered SUV is a funny and strange character between other cars. It looks fake, but it is functional; it is a real car, but it is covered. It conveys my contradiction and ignorance as a foreigner. Through the photography, it expresses a continuing vagrant journey.
