Young May Yee’s life gets a 360° makeover when she is given a chance to go to the sunny Singapore for a much brighter future. But with an opportunity this grand, can she really keep up with what she is expected to become?

‘wandering’ is a semi-autobiographical graphic novel that follows May Yee, a young Burmese TCK coming to terms with her identity and the relationships with people around her, shaped by her experiences of living in Myanmar in the early 2000s and then moving to Singapore with her family. The story will be told through different perspectives, from both May Yee and her immigrant family in different print formats and sizes, and each of these works will be inspired in terms of form and narrative content by items from Burmese visual culture. Through these visual and narrative elements, ‘wandering’ hopes to communicate a more personal and unique experience of moving from Myanmar, while addressing the universal TCK experiences of growing up in two countries at the same time.
