LOVE LETTERS THAT GO UNSAID: A MANIFESTO PUBLICATION

LOVE LETTERS THAT GO UNSAIDwas an assignment for my Communication Studio IV class, a part of my manifesto project. It did not take long until I used this project as an outlet for some inner emotions and thoughts that I had carried for, in some cases, years.Through the publication, I decided to explore how my life, myself, my existence changed through certain relationships I have had in the past.

My main goal was do seek “design” through raw emotions, and not be tied onto a machine, losing what was most important; the actual experiences, the emotions, the stories that seeped through the ephemera I had collected.

MANIFESTO:

BECAUSE Everything in me is so raw. BECAUSE I listen to my heart’s screams.

YOU are a manifestation of my emotions, a METAMORPHISIS of the mind.

YOU are mine, I am responsible, I have control of you, YOU belong to me, not others. I listen to my demons,

my emotions, my stories, and attempt to speak in symbols that may not

make any sense to you.YOU glorify my scars.

YOU cradle me in your arms, lulling me to sleep. YOU are my lover, my killer, my thief, my curer.

Without you I am nothing. MY heart and mind is chaos, but it allows me

to see and feel the things I do.
