Student Narrative
‘& adalaide’ is a book that discusses the feeling of disconnection from oneself and living a life that does not feel like your own. It showcases this idea through the lens of one girl whose two lives begin to contradict and overlap each other as the book progresses. The visuals exude a feeling of disorientation and confusion very similar to a dissociative experience. It takes the form of a soft book created by hand-sewing and hand-embroidery, both processes that can cause meditative states akin to that of a dissociative one.
