How We Find Belonging by Amber Lee Fawson

I asked 200 people to tell me about a group or person with whom they feel belonging. From their responses, I created a flow chart that is several meters long.

At any point in the flow chart, the answers of just a few people are highlighted, and you can read personal testimonials that go along with the answers. The chart is printed on 120-gram recycled stock and is accordion folded, allowing viewers to focus on one panel at a time, or to take in the full flow chart.

My goal with this piece was to create a meaningful data experience that could offer insights and reflection to any person who is looking for places to belong. I also believed that such a data experience could help individuals see that they are not alone in their search for belonging.
