PUBBLICATION
PROJECT BRIEF
In partnership with the Room Project, create a publication that explores how we define and represent our personal 'space'.MY VISION
For this zine with a focuse on “Making Space” i dived deep in my personal story waving toghter my feelings and experinces as i traveled through various places and moments, leaving behind trasured objects and memories, while embracing the unfamiliar. Each page holds echoes of homes I once called mine, with photographs of objects that carried pieces of my heart, now set adrift in new surroundings. he zine is a bittersweet exploration of the quiet loss and wistful nostalgia that come with leaving behind the places and things we love. Yet, alongside that melancholy, it captures the tender act of making space for something new—new memories, new friendships, and new chapters.In every departure, there is a quiet mourning for what was, but in every arrival, there is a celebration of the human spirit’s resilience to adapt, to heal, and to grow. This zine is a reflection of that bittersweet dance between loss and renewal, where memories linger like whispers, and new beginnings bloom in the spaces left behind.
PROCESS
RESEARCH
hroughout my research, I embarked on a personal journey to better understand the concept of creating space, particularly from the perspective of an immigrant.
As both the daughter of immigrants and an immigrant myself, this exploration became deeply personal. Through this process, I recognized various expansions of my identity and the spaces I inhabit. Having moved frequently over the years, I’ve continually found myself navigating new spaces while simultaneously leaving behind memories, objects, and people.
In an effort to fully comprehend the societal and personal ramifications of creating space, I started by laying out a number of thoughts and ideas about what it meant to do so in a more literal sense and making connections between them.
