A group project between myself, Sarah Kozlowski, and Jill Southern, "Valdivia 1960" presents the biographical story of my mother surviving the most powerful earthquake to date (Valdivia's 9.5 on the Richter scale in 1960). The story was incorporated with imagery from Sarah Kozlowski's own story: her grandmother teaching her to knit. We created a graphically simple book, mixing classic 1960s elements with contemporary typography, and visually representing ideas of loss, redemption, and family.

A take on the state of popular culture, this pop-up book followed the tweets of Sarah Silverman on the topic of balls. It aimed to present the instant, ephemeral world of Twitter in the world of print, using one of the most time-consuming and precise methods of bookmaking - the pop-up book. It used dainty, feminine imagery ironically to present Silverman's vulgar, crude tweets.

This three volume set of books was made using saddle stitch techniques, quarter leather bind, and letterpress for titles. It was made to serve as a one of a kind collector's book containing poetry with themes of loss, pilgrimage, and loneliness, following the lives of men, women, and children who went in search for gold during the 1870s. It was individually typed and featured watercolour paintings.
