I’VE REALIZED I’VE BECOME A CREATURE OF HABIT is a book created around the prompt “What matters?” The book explores reliance on self-created and imposed routines and habits. Through the gradual obscuring and destruction of personal essays on the topic, I explored the simultaneous freedom and restriction that habit creates.

Printed on translucent vellum, with every page a new composition emerges. The book also came packaged with a loose sheet of cardstock the size of a single page, so that the reader could insert it behind any given page and view it in isolation.
