Design an 'artist book' that explores the theme of being here. Develop a narrative or set of questions as the conceptual basis of enquiry for your artist book. Create artworks, design elements and/or writings that respond to place as it pertains to you. Use the tools and frameworks of the 'artist book' and the concepts in our studio to create a book of inquiry and exploration around the theme of 'being here'.
For this brief, I created an artist's book that considers my ideas of place, belonging, and identity – exploring my home and host countries: Sweden, Iran, and Australia. The book contains digitally painted self-portraits, poems by Rumi, and illustrations of native flowers from Sweden, Iran, and Australia.
