in-between points of view: Master Thesis Book, Graduate Thesis II.
"As a designer I am committed to creating graphic narratives that encourage readers to adopt shifting perspectives within a single subject or theme. My visual language is defined by respect for the original record; the so-called authentic source. My process begins with researching primary source materials (archives, collections, databases) and then critically examining these sources, always considering "the story" from multiple perspectives. Suspicious of ideological manipulation, I believe it is important to articulate contrasting points-of-view within the same story in order to expose the multi-faceted nature of every story, rather than foreground one position. My body of work is not restricted to any specific media but considers the advantages and limits of every media, choosing those which communicate the best. My approach is based on a belief that, in designing only as much as is needed and by highlighting contrasting points-of-view, I create space for readers to comprehend and interpret
on their own."

Subtitles Study 1, Book: Graduate Thesis II.
I never paid attention to formal language of subtitles.
Type is set in the most default setting. It´s a kind of
black square in typography. By cropping only to part
with subtitles I want the reader to pay more attention
to formal qualities of subtitles.

Damian Ortega at RISD Museum of Art
Damian Ortega’s installation in the space are deploying the principle
of fragmentation and spatial dispersion of forms. How would he
fragment letter forms? How would he allow viewers to experience this
process of deconstruction and perception? And how does it feel to
transfer three dimensional forms onto a flat surface? Even we’re looking
at the two dimensional poster, we can experience tension between the
three dimensional letterforms and the flatness of the canvas, between
colors, clarity and experiment, information and interpretation.

Missed Connections–Something has disappeared: Book, Graduate Studio II.
This project was originally inspired by photographs of abandoned places.
This places evoke abandoned stories. Similar abandoned stories appear every day in category "Missed connections". My intention was to create a chronologically ordered documentation that will show interaction with these people. These messages will never find the intended recipient and remain abandoned in the virtual space. Yet thanks to this virtual space they can be shared with others.

Stein, Gertrude. 1914. Tender Buttons: Video
Video visualization of Gertrude Stein’s writing. She emphasizes the sounds and rhythms rather than the sense of words. By departing from conventional meaning, grammar and syntax, she attempted to capture “moments of consciousness,” independent of time and memory.
Text used: "Go red go red, laugh white. Suppose a collapse in rubbed purr, in rubbed purr get. Little sales ladies little sales ladies little saddles of mutton. Little sales of leather and such beautiful beautiful, beautiful beautiful."
