The origins of this story began as a scene of two beings standing under the stars, gazing up in wonder as the sky encased them and water surrounded them on all sides. <img width="1620" height="1080" width_o="1620" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dd81dfe53a71891834e27b91ce6d0a1495968e45cd7fecce5e8d903bf89178f3/thumbnail2.jpg" data-mid="148953191" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dd81dfe53a71891834e27b91ce6d0a1495968e45cd7fecce5e8d903bf89178f3/thumbnail2.jpg" /> <img width="1522" height="1016" width_o="1522" height_o="1016" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ba8b7c588c5fd1a0c08d715a88d5fee3974da18c773cdc5daf092d39f2629695/thumbnail1.jpg" data-mid="148953190" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ba8b7c588c5fd1a0c08d715a88d5fee3974da18c773cdc5daf092d39f2629695/thumbnail1.jpg" /> <img width="1248" height="832" width_o="1248" height_o="832" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/17914e086ccae1206c0d24f6a212cec16a0ce33f66e5fdc3ee4ec5c932363ced/thumbnail5.jpg" data-mid="148953194" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/17914e086ccae1206c0d24f6a212cec16a0ce33f66e5fdc3ee4ec5c932363ced/thumbnail5.jpg" /> <img width="1440" height="960" width_o="1440" height_o="960" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/894cf7e656d5fcec83e827450a25bb065db6bfd86b35b291764198314ddc5ace/thumbnail3.jpg" data-mid="148953192" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/894cf7e656d5fcec83e827450a25bb065db6bfd86b35b291764198314ddc5ace/thumbnail3.jpg" /> Character Design I designed this character to have a visibily missing part of her body. During her journey, she finds something that fills this missing part, but leaves her visibily empty.As she comes to terms with this missing part of herself, she becomes whole. After self-reflecting on cultural identity, I developed a story about how we are plural beings. We are both our past and present selfs, always evolving, and on a continuous journey of developing our own identities. <img width="4126" height="2751" width_o="4126" height_o="2751"

creative project designed while studying theories of globalization. I was given the freedom to choose both my subject and medium, so I created a storybook to explore cultural identity through the lens of biracial person. Examining culture across diaspora and notions of race in America is at the core of this project. The first portion of the booklet includes an illustrated narrative about a being that struggles to find its place among the sea and the land. The second portion of the booklet includes an essay on identity through a theoretical lens.

Within this book, a being struggles to find its place among the land and sea. Flip through the story below&nbsp;︎︎︎ The being has close ties to the water, but lives on the land. Those of the land believed that this being belonged to the sea, but those of the sea tell the being that it does not know their way of life.

We tend to think of identity as taking us back to our roots, the part of us which remains essentially the same across time. In fact, identity is always a never-completed process of becoming - a process of shifting identifications, rather than a singular, complete, finished state of being.” ― Stuart Hall https://sjsosa.com/Picture-Book-F-ck-it-I-m-Buying-a-Cabin Mon, 25 Mar 2024 06:34:54 +0000 s. sosa https://sjsosa.com/Picture-Book-F-ck-it-I-m-Buying-a-Cabin <img width="2700" height="1050" width_o="2700" height_o="1050" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3508ecbb3c3dd966e08f07bb507f03640057a64f4f623e5d1b5eddab59e6755c/PICTUREBOOK-MOCUKUP3.png" data-mid="233942070" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3508ecbb3c3dd966e08f07bb507f03640057a64f4f623e5d1b5eddab59e6755c/PICTUREBOOK-MOCUKUP3.png" />F*ck It, I’m Buying a Cabin picture book | illustration | layout design The adult picture book, F*ck It, I’m Buying a Cabin, follows the millennial protagonist Sarah, as she takes back control of her life, leaving her unfulfilling job and crazy roommates behind.

consists of a series of typography explorations following the theme of figure skating. I took influence from professional figure skating journals and considered how its information could be communicated in a more visually enticing way. The explorations for this project consist of three parts: page spreads, three-dimensional grids, and animations.︎ Original Article︎ Yuzuru Hanyu Biography 2020 <img width="2094" height="1736" width_o="2094" height_o="1736" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c3f56ebc1b038eade14a7883a07b9673eda17eecf8fdba6afd28dd56a90d40ad/sketch-1.jpg" data-mid="136059609" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c3f56ebc1b038eade14a7883a07b9673eda17eecf8fdba6afd28dd56a90d40ad/sketch-1.jpg" /> <img width="2819" height="2114" width_o="2819" height_o="2114" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/743215be4da44271af0ba1a4b75379d6def32b95d431d87e2174ea8453abab8c/grid1new.jpg" data-mid="136059765" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/743215be4da44271af0ba1a4b75379d6def32b95d431d87e2174ea8453abab8c/grid1new.jpg" /> <img width="1942" height="1554" width_o="1942" height_o="1554" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dfb198a03f4c38153acfca87900daabb5efce3bdb07c816e17894fc875eac3dd/thumbnailnew2.jpg" data-mid="136059608" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dfb198a03f4c38153acfca87900daabb5efce3bdb07c816e17894fc875eac3dd/thumbnailnew2.jpg" /> <img width="1440" height="1125" width_o="1440" height_o="1125" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6daef5bb1a8ee734ef747771e3b3ee6e44603a67aa4dda5054e200981ddf27ee/thumbnail-new.png" data-mid="136059766" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6daef5bb1a8ee734ef747771e3b3ee6e44603a67aa4dda5054e200981ddf27ee/thumbnail-new.png" /> Part 1 / Page Spreads I started off by creating page spreads while keeping a hypothetical print publication in mind. I used copy from the article on Hanyu’s skating career linked above. I first sketched out quick thumbnails and illustrations for grids layouts as seen above. Then I created several drafts exploring typeface, text weight, and texture combination. After various iterations, I finalized spreads that shared Yuzuru Hanyu’s story most successfully. Check out my finalized spreads below. <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7b94056c9c8321a848c60f2714a7e558fb88fa8dc15278d20c483677d589ebce/part1-print2.png" data-mid="136059900" border="0" data-rotation="-5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7b94056c9c8321a848c60f2714a7e558fb88fa8dc15278d20c483677d589ebce/part1-print2.png" /> <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1fa61add9abe48dfb459bf3dc3b1b09469283994fa2a76a360ca6d99b3b179ee/part1-print10.png" data-mid="136059906" border="0" data-rotation="-5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1fa61add9abe48dfb459bf3dc3b1b09469283994fa2a76a360ca6d99b3b179ee/part1-print10.png" /> <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b863f914a1f090018231ec41c8b105a202345b6de6048d670e2b88cd068dbcbf/part1-print8.png" data-mid="136059904" border="0" data-rotation="7.5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b863f914a1f090018231ec41c8b105a202345b6de6048d670e2b88cd068dbcbf/part1-print8.png" /> <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d546610b437b5e92050169f66b87e00beac7c5a045841f79ecd984142a09b976/part1-print5.png" data-mid="136059902" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d546610b437b5e92050169f66b87e00beac7c5a045841f79ecd984142a09b976/part1-print5.png" /> <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/72778d7db3382821c41db63422af47379188fb3e0cb13741074a1fbc4ff4c634/part1-print6.png" data-mid="136059903" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/72778d7db3382821c41db63422af47379188fb3e0cb13741074a1fbc4ff4c634/part1-print6.png" /> <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e9961ccf786077e3b0ba64745b10234d2be8a3328a237d9be00b2bcc02a0beb7/part1-print12.png" data-mid="136059908" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e9961ccf786077e3b0ba64745b10234d2be8a3328a237d9be00b2bcc02a0beb7/part1-print12.png" /> <img width="2550" height="1650" width_o="2550" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6590292bccc3e745ab4a4871b3976dd110150ea788424e5273cedc6035d3182b/part1-print9.png" data-mid="136059905" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6590292bccc3e745ab4a4871b3976dd110150ea788424e5273cedc6035d3182b/part1-print9.png" /> Part 2 / 3D Grids I typeset short bits of copy from the Yuzuru Hanyu article into short strips of text, and varied typefaces and scales. I printed the copy I typset and then cut it out. Next, I built a three dimensional grid with paper straws. Once the grid was built, I arranged the small strips of paper across the grid, taping it on. By layering, bending, and manipulating the paper, I was able to create a various three-dimensioal compostions with type. This was a fun process that allowed me to experiment with type as texture, and I documented the grid with photography and videos shown below.

I used this as an opportunity to experiment with motion and texture, and aimed to support a headline in these animations, that of which is the figure skater, Yuzuru Hanyu.
