Jared-Gentz-surrealis-zine-2

Exploring metaphor and the philosophy of language, Philippe Audouin’s surrealist game encourages participants to look at their physical, mental, and spiritual existence from varied perspectives. This zine is comprised of my visual interpretation of his ten questions and focuses on my position as a transplant from a small town to living in Detroit and what it means to question where you feel at home. Collaged oppositions that move the reader’s eye around the page represent the idea of personal growth coming from diverse influences.
