An arts-based heuristic study was designed to explore the researcher response to how self-disclosure of her racial and religious background affected her identity at clinical internship. The study consisted of the researcher making response art and daily journaling on the days of internship regarding experiences that dealt with self-disclosure, religion, and race. A total of 18 artworks and 87 journal entries were collected. The art responses were grouped into four major themes: flag, representational, circles, and scattered. Journal entries were divided into the language used: English only, Korean only, both, and no response and themes: race, religion, or irrelevant. From this exploration and reflection, the researcher gained a deeper understanding about her identity and how different components that make up her identity influence each other.
