This book is not a failed love story, neither a pessimistic visual essay. It is a book of innocent failures, things that are so transparent, so deeply unimportant, yet occur every day as a sequence of unfortunate events that make you question how lucky you are. This project is deeply personal and inspired by unimportant little annoyings of life. It is divided into 3 sections. It begins with the patterns which represent the repetition and commonness of these happenings. Next follows the section of fruits as a reminder of impermanency. Last part consists of my personal meditations either through my fears and frustrations or mythology and art.
The whole content of the book is my own work, from the design to the poems and illustrations. Through all of these mediums I tried to find my own was of expressing this concept of little irritating misfortunes.
