More > dictionary is built up of moments of my life defined by the geographic location I lived in. Along with defining words with my personal definitions, I added photographs to explore a text-image relationship that exists within each page.

The design of this book is inspired by Dadaist work and more recently by book artists, such as John Carrera and his book Pictorial Webster’s. The idea for my tiled words was inspired by the look of magnetic poetry, which originally alluded to my limited word choice, but now is to illustrate that these are words I specifically choose in order to define myself.< Less
