Women who follow their students-husbands to the United States are limited in their ability to engage fully in American society, due to the F-2 (i.e. immigrant spouse) status of their visas. Through the mediating screen of art images, the author investigated five Asian F-2 visa status women’s feelings of uncertainty about their identities and social positions. Findings showed that the women were able to empathize with the subjects of the images, people in their new environment, and themselves through looking and talking about art.}, month = {12}, pages = {127-143}, issn = {2832-8388}, publisher={University of Arizona Libraries}, journal = {Journal of Cultural Research in Art Education} }
