This is a photograph of a printed page featuring a personal narrative and a partial face image. The page includes text recounting the experiences of a child named Trang, who narrates their journey from living in Vietnam with their grandmother to moving to the United States and adjusting to life there. The narrative is juxtaposed with a faded, half-tone image of a face, mostly obscured except for the eye. Its title, "Have You Seen Me?", is prominently displayed in bold blue letters. The project is attributed to collaboration efforts by artists Larry and Kelly Sultan with students.
