The dividers represent the difference between high-context and low-context culture. High-context culture cannot be understood without background information. This is referred to Asian, African, Arab, central European, Latin American culture. Communication is engaging with others and an individual's identity is rooted in groups in such cultures. Low-context culture is explicit and defined. This is seen in most Western European cultures where communication is exchanging information and identities are individualized. My dividers talk about the intercultural communication dynamics through my personal experience going back and forth between my Korean and American culture.
