About the Book
The writing exercise looks at all the projects after the fact, one year after completing the final academic course and writing chronologically. The book is laid out from front to back as newest to oldest, while it is written back to front, from oldest to newest. This allows ideas to be concretized and thoroughly reflected upon, looking at the images/drawings produced in relation to the time that has passed since. Additionally, each project is extensively researched and justified with precedent analysis, articulating the development of history through a personal lens, later reconfigured.
