Ink Narratives, Carmela Cucuzzella
Performed Browsing, Hannah Materne
This book was drawn and written following the principles of the exquisite corpse. It is at once linear and fragmented. It reflects on the inner strengths and weaknesses of women committed to a purpose beyond individual interests, particularly in a world of exteriorities and appearances. The reading of both words and images is provoked through the performance of intuitive browsing of the accordion book. Readers are invited to enjoy ambiguities and concealed states appearing through random foldings.
