You can see my body of work Not As Expected here .It is an exploration of the dynamic interplay between text and handwriting, emphasising the dichotomy between standardised communication and individual expression. The investigation focuses on the tension between computer-generated fonts and asemic handwriting, reflecting broader societal themes of conformity and individuality.
