This is a sorrowful narrative by a non-typical foreign spouse within a traditional family structure.
It integrates the author's life journey through photography, prints, oil painting, and text.
Is there only one social status for foreign spouses?
Beyond childbirth, household chores, and economic contributions, foreign spouses write the stories of everything around them with their lives. Some use writing and artistic creation to document these trajectories of life.
