Nancy Correia is an illustrator working with a variety of analogue mediums to explore narratives within the Indian diaspora and concepts of identity in the wider world. Focusing on personal and collective identity, Correia aims to understand and depict the complexity of labelled existence while navigating her own identity as a person of colour in the West, striving to discover how one transcends liminality to inhabit third spaces.
