To what extent is our identity and everyday lives shaped by our visa status or ID representation? 

This workshop is designed to explore intersectional LGBTQ+ identities by reflecting on immigration Tier system, visa/ID policies and cross-border experiences. 

Joawe Yang will present her stories on the struggles of immigration status and identity shifts in the liminal uncertainties: renting struggles, job-seeking obstacles, marital negotiations, overall hostile environment. 

Qiuyan Chen will introduce a brief history of zine-making and its impact as a grassroot medium for self-expression and social activism. Time to create your own zine & share your story too!
