To exist and identify as a disruption of systematic norms constantly
puts you at risk in the world around you.
Identity Disruption is a collection of stories told by people who
feel that their identity disrupts the standards set by the society
that surrounds them. I had conversations with each of them and
discussed how they experience the risk that their disruptive
identity may put them in. Then, each of them thought of an artifact
that would help them confront the risk that they face or help others
in similar situations. These artifacts stem from a range of
protection, pride, anger, and fear. The purpose of this is to show
the ways that people of different backgrounds and experiences may
face the world when they do not fit the Western standard of who and
what they should be.
