A research book that explores the boundaries of writing and the practice of ‘unlearning.’

Through writing as an extension of the body and without the intention of making sense, I seek new meanings and move beyond those I already know.

 The White Flag Principle2024

Redesign of the book “The White Flag Principle: How to Lose a War and Why” by Shimon Tzabar, published in 1995.

While designing the book during the current war, I aimed to highlight the text’s relevance by creating images that at first seem like peaceful clouds in a blue sky but reveal a tense and unsettling reality upon closer inspection.

 But, I Love My Family [ 1 ]
2023

A booklet featuring the first chapter of Sophie Lewis's essay “Abolish the Family: A Manifesto for Care and Liberation,” which critically examines traditional family structures and advocates for alternative models.

In the design, I weave in elements from the magazine “Ain't I a Woman?” which also challenged the accepted concept of social order.

120 × 190 mm., 36 p.

 But, if this is so [ 2 ]2023

Letterpress printed on textile. The book includes text from Issue № 13 (1971) of “Ain’t I a Woman?”, a North American magazine by the Publications Collective of the Iowa City Women’s Liberation Front.

The analog work of this project tries to convey frustration and highlights the yearning for freedom and self-determination addressed in the text.

210 × 300 mm., 20 p.

 A Fence or a Wall 2022

The booklet explores the terminological issue regarding the barrier: raising the question of whether it is a “fence” or a “wall,” and the significant meanings and implications each term carries.

180 × 250 mm., 28 p.
