Uncovering the Archive

Project type

Personal Project

Date

November 2023

"Uncovering the Archive" was inspired by the transition from print media to the digital era and the sensations of physical habit--leafing through a magazine, filling out a crossword with a pen, writing a letter by hand--that were lost in this transition. The project incorporates elements of textual, sensory, and fashion nostalgia. It references Paco Rabanne's famous "Rhodoid Plastic Disc Dress' in its use of chain links, and the letter tiles are organized in the shape of two New York Times crosswords, one from December 5, 1976. Bananagrams letter tiles evoke tactile memories of playing board games through their distinctive smooth, cold surfaces.
