Even Signs Must Burn2
A collection of academic essays concerning Jean Baudrillard.

Barefoot Across America4
An archive of Mark Baumer's attempt to cross America barefoot.
Publication
4 I've long admired Mark Baumer's writing and work. When he began to walk across America in 2016, I closely followed on his Youtube channel. Tragically, he died on this trip, and his project seemed unfinished. This book transcribes and organizes his video blog, memorializing the sprawling, funny, brave journey of Mark.
Emoji Beziers5
A collection of collaged text.
Web
🍇
5 This poetry collection approaches type and emojis as two forms collaborating to form new meaning. Here's a link to the site.
Insecure Archive6
A compilation of writing and miscellany.
Publication
6 Inspired by a compendium of "calling cards" from the special collection in the Providence Public library, this book collects writing from across a semester, which interrogates a private/public divide. Through this object, I hoped to pin down the slippery anonymity of the original "calling cards."

Typeface

84 Evergreen Street10
A poetry collection dedicated to an apartment.
Publication

Bad Object(s)11
A collection of insecure objects.
Objects
11 Form structures these "bad objects," reconfiguring the private as something public. Like the "Insecure Archive", this collection began with calling cards and then used the products of graphic design to make strange personal entreaties: an Insecurity Blanket, an Insecuri-tee, Secret porcelain.

RISD GD Biennial Grad Show15
The Biennial GD Grad show identity designed in collaboration with Robert McConnell and Weixi Zeng
Identity
15 In collaboration with Weixi Zeng and Robert McConnell, the Biennial GD identity offered a responsive system that adapted to context and geography. By using a modular structure, the posters (printed on only tabloid and letters) adapted to the space and could collapse/ expand like an acronym.
