Narrating their lives, the Filipina migrant artists in this book tell us what it means to live between two cultures: their indigenous culture and the culture of their adopted country. They share with us their initial feeling of displacement or even alienation, their attempts to reach out to others, to try to become a part of the new communities on which they find themselves.
