Camino/Journey (2022)

This is an artist’s book in accordion format, narrating both my journey and that of my great-great-grandfather.
It transports the viewer through the spatial and temporal changes that shaped our lives.

The format itself is conceived as a metamorphosis, where memory, trace, and experience are intertwined in a structure that, when unfolded, reveals the story as a spatial-temporal whole.
