We De Try

RISO , Procreate , Photoshop

Description

We De Try is a publication developed with Esther Aminata Kamara and Creative Media for Social Change, exploring storytelling and story-listening as research practices within higher education. The research follows a process of questioning how stories are listened to, interpreted and shared, and what care and responsibility mean within these encounters.

How can a publication give form to a personal and non-linear research journey while inviting the reader to listen along the way?

Working with Esther, I first explored different forms the research could take, including an interactive website, a podcast series and an illustrated book. Together we chose to develop the book, and I translated her writing and research journey into a visual and material form.

I designed and illustrated the publication as a continuous reading experience, using drawings, diagrams, shifts in composition and speech-like elements to accompany the movement between personal stories, research reflections and theoretical ideas. The visual language moves alongside the writing and helps give rhythm and form to the changes in voice and perspective.

The final publication was printed and binded by me in 4 color RISO printing, carrying the project from early publishing exploration through design, illustration and final production.
