Assigned a fictional book title, I created a corresponding plotline and visual theme to go along with it. The plot, a
story about two teenagers thrust from private school into
the dangers of public school, was well-suited to visuals of pristine green spaces and architecture. I created a model to go along with this theme and photographed it in Washington University's Brookings Quad, using the letters as architectur-
al pieces suggestive of decay, even in the midst of wealth
and beauty.
