From the Group Chat

A collection of collages I made from screenshots of instagram posts of screenshots of tweets that my friends send in our Instagram group chat. An intersection between digital and analog, these collages use printed ephemera but are arranged digitally.

Two Birds

This zine is a story told in three parts through the use of cyanotype paper, inspired by the song of the same name by Regina Spektor. The song describes two birds, where one wants to leave the comfort of the wire, but the other doesn't. The cyanotypes show the passage of time by changing the position of one bird, but leaving the other alone on the page.

Each frame had its own "negative" produced and was exposed and developed individually.

Vignette

My resolution for 2024 was to print more of my photos, and "Vignette" was born. Vignette is a photozine comprised of landscape photos taken on my travels from 2020-2024. It contains seven photos along with some prose about what I remember about that trip. Inspired by the name, I die-cut the cover to simulate a slide of film and used vellum to give a subtle peek into the contents.

Fruit Journals

This series of blank journals started as a way to use offcuts from bigger binding projects. Each journal uses a circle die-cut to reveal different colored cardstock to mimic a fruit variety. Patterned origami papers are used for the leaves to make each journal even more unique.
