 "Multiple Worlds" gives you the realization that is not only "us" living on this planet, but a variety of people and cultures, and that more empathy should be shown to people living outside of our cultures. Multiple Worlds is an interactive installation with video, sound, and tangible objects. This installation provides an experience of a different country than the one you are in so the audience will experience confusion by listening, watching, and acquiring new information about places they don't know. This inspires a new perspective, as it introduces unknown factors beyond their own world, offering a window into a diversity of global experiences. As I am an immigrant, I have faced many differences living in two countries. Language, weather, food, customs, and all those factors and differences made communication more challenging, but at the same time opened my eyes to new perspectives.
