CONCEPT:

'This is not you.' reflects on René Magritte's The Treachery of Images. It explores the beginnings of emoji and watches them become the bodge that they are today. Due to a lack of materials at home, experimentation drove the book's form and structural narrative?honing in on pages' asymmetrical interactions with one another, while creating typographic texture through their low opacity. This was completed as an undergraduate thesis project.
