A Selection from the Liebrary

Misinformation and disinformation are everywhere. It is nearly impossible to get through the day without being subjected to some form of falsehood. People will misinterpret, misunderstand, and misremember things. Blatant lies are told, truths are concealed, and realities are skewed. On occasion, these lies are so bad that it is laughable, and sometimes the truth is so outrageous that you refuse to believe it. Many people end up not even questioning the things they are being told, trusting anything that looks or sounds like it might be true.

Through referencing traditionally trusted sources I manipulate truths to create my own misinformation. My aim is to get the audience to consider the information recognizing blatant falsities while also being tricked by some, or not believing the truthful aspects throughout.

Illuminated manuscripts were a trusted source of their time. Using visual inspiration from both these books and medieval animal illustrations the first book of this series was created. Using a satirical tone I combined and  true false information, making it difficult to figure out what can be trusted.
