WRITING WITHOUT LETTERS; DIARY

Opening the Margins Series / Book / 2002 / thanks to Allen Hori / Yale University

Another project that reveals a discrepancy between inside and outside is my Diary project. The structure that I chose for the book, French binding, helps illustrate the contrast between hidden emotions and revealed thoughts. Here is a disconnection in form: on the one hand, a diary, a format for revealing one’s thoughts, and on the other, the folds of the paper, which indicate that something is hidden. The discrepancy between the words in the diary and the hidden emotions also manifests the idea of disconnection.
