Young American is about the hope of youth, the power of youth, and about the connection between people—the profound humanness we all share. It reflects my vision, as an immigrant, of the freedom and identity of an “America” still rife with dreams and possibilities. It is my visualization of America that validates a sense of self not in terms of some idealized standard of gender, sexuality, or beauty, but as who we each are as unique individuals.
