Zachary Trebellas. Foreign Resident Ethnicity Form/ Ink, Marker, Inkjet Print. 2015.This Is The Updated

Zachary Trebellas. Foreign Resident Ethnicity Form/ 居留外国人の民族性用紙。Ink, marker, inkjet print. 2015. This is the updated version of a draft I created earlier this year. You can find the earlier version here. The title of the form reads Foreign Resident Ethnicity.  In the lower portion I used the Japanese test marking symbols: X = no, O = yes, and △ is somewhere in between (typically a ½ point). The left side heading reads “Please enter your appropriate ethnicity” and the right “Please enter the appropriate ethnicity of the applicant.” So, the left side is my answers, and the right is what I feel could be an average Japanese person’s answers about me. 1. Foreigner (at times derogative, lit. outside person) 2. Other 3. Foreigner (neutral, lit. outside nation person) 4. Japanese 5. Of Japanese descent (lit. Japanese-type) 6. American
