I enjoyed collaborating on this project more than I expected to. I was never really a group project person growing up, but the process of working with Matilde to find common ground was fun for me. I was worried that because our concept was less involved than some other pair’s ideas it would make it seem underwhelming. I was pleasantly surprised, however, by the result. Our project’s simplicity was one of its strengths in my opinion.

This project was very enjoyable for me. I have worked in collage before, and the act of cutting and tearing, then arranging was so cathartic for me. I had fun picking out the books at the strand and enjoyed the ways in which I could distort the images and words to communicate my message.
