Description

Looking at my work from the past, I typically did clean, simple designs. For my manifesto I wanted to do the opposite. I was heavily influenced by the Beat Generation, a literary movement that explored the themes of inner self, the human condition, and exploration of culture. I was also influenced by the writer William S. Burroughs who explored the “cut-up method”; he would write or take a piece of literature and cut it up and rearrange it into something new. My manifesto, being a triptych, appears cut up, messy, disorganized and can be read in anyway the viewer feels.
