After the presentation, our group got critics from people who came to the exhibition. One of the comments we got was that our group project was more towards about the process and progress than the result or final product.
Implying our ideas into 4 individual panels was about going through a thought process to present the individuals. Then how those different 16 panels (4 each) come together and make one piece to present the ‘unity in variety.’ Our thoughts developed from the phrase that Maitha found, “Similar but so different, Different but so similar.”

As mentioned before,

“We are all different, but similar, and it is only when we share our thoughts that we accomplish the ultimate goal of understanding and peace.”



Bernard said, "Experience is what it is."

From this Dubai trip and working with Zayed University students, I learned how to compromise and negotiate each other’s ideas and opinions within the group. Working with group is an important part in design field. From sharing thoughts, I got to know and understand better about the culture and people.
Experiencing culture and people physically and emotionally was the whole process of making this Dubai trip much more valuable and unique.
This great experience gave me chance to expand my way of thinking and understanding different cultures. I definitely think this experience will affect my art.
I hope this opportunity can be shared and continued.
