"Katology" Student Project, 2010

Student work from 2010
 
I've come a long way since then, but might as well keep this here, to show development.

This was a second-semester uni assignment where we had to make a visual essay about ourselves in the form of an A5 book, including a 1500 word essay, and an infographic containing quantitative and qualitative data, as well as short stories or quotes from the friends we interviewed.

I'd never done anything like this before, so there are a lot of firsts here, embroidering my friend's faces onto felt was really fun, and I discovered the beauty of Bodoni Poster Italic...
self-portraits turned out to be pretty fun,
I chose to draw a few of my favourite hairstyles from the past 2 years...

Mohawks are just so much fun
I'm very new to embroidery, but was really excited to try...
the resemblance of this one was pretty accurate
this is my boyfriend! ;P

Ah! I liked stitching the glasses

a few spreads


I'm not very good at photographing my work yet,
this is the cover of the A5 book, it's french-folded~

I painted my face and took a million photos (just so one of them would be in focus)

it surprises people to learn I'm not actually a candy-raver, just look like one...

my very first info-graphic!
I know the lines are messy, they were an afterthought :S
