The concept for this two-coloured lithograph print is bringing light to the story of the fortune cookie to reflect on my Chinese-Canadian identity. The idea of the fortune cookie was created by an Asian immigrant in America. However, some may consider the tasty treat one or the other, and not both. By titling the print “Asian or American?”, a personal parallel is created between my personal identity and the story of the fortune cookie.
