Nothingness by Altamash Kadri, Charlotte Damm, and Stella Tsiliberdi is a poetry collection exploring the concept of "nothingness" through three sections: Life, In-between, and Death. The anthology presents varied poetic expressions and unique perspectives, visually capturing the emotions of this abstract notion. While organised thematically, the interpretations often intermingle, creating a rich tapestry of ideas that transcend conventional boundaries.
Binding
The book was meticulously hand-bound using traditional Coptic binding techniques, which showcase its craftsmanship and durability. The book jacket is thoughtfully designed to highlight this unique binding method, featuring a gradient that mirrors the book's aesthetic. This design choice not only protects the book but also enhances its visual appeal, offering a seamless and elegant presentation.
As a group, we recorded videos inspired by the poems in the book, each member narrating a poem. We filmed scenes that complemented the poems themes and emotions. Afterward, we edited the videos, adding sound design elements to enhance the atmosphere. The result was a series of engaging video presentations that beautifully combined visual and auditory art.
