About Beyond I.D.entity_

Who are Melbourne’s international students? Who are they beyond the label of ‘international students?’

Through the students who we have met through the Beyond I.D.entity_ project, we have learnt that they are artists, dancers, queer, filmmakers, photographers…

Coming from diverse backgrounds, they went on a journey to explore their identities and shared their stories through the artwork that you will see in this presentation.

Come meet other international students, local artists and community members, to share and celebrate ‘beyond identities.’ Listen to the sounds, watch the performances, and immerse yourself in the films. Look at the paintings and photography… Meet the artists to learn about their artwork creation and stories behind the scene.
