#Ellie is half Spanish. Spanish enough. Kind of. Maybe. Spanish(ish).

And somehow she's got to summarise everything that entails into an interactive art exhibition for uni...

Join her for a funny, foreign, and refreshingly frank exploration of how we build our identity when we don't know where to look for it. Through the highs and lows of dancing flamenco and disconnected families, Ellie paints a picture of who she is and almost was. It's a true(ish) story of searching for community in cramped classrooms, under towering gum trees, and across multiple oceans. But most of all, it's a celebration of what, and who, you find along the way.
