Student Narrative

I use a government-issued household first-aid kit as my point of departure to construct a seemingly jubilant utopian world. Ironically, the contents of the kit reveal that this “positivity” does not arise from individual free choice, but is a fiction imposed by institutional authorities. Through this premise, I seek to reflect how contemporary society rejects and refuses to accommodate negative emotions.
