METANOIA ARTBOOK
BAFMI L2—S1/2



PROJECT DESCRIPTION
METANOIA presents its first collection through a printed booklet. As it is inspired by the ancient tales, it is designed to be read like a storybook that features sing-along type poetry meant to mimic the chanting of the Dukun, the malay witch’s curse. It goes by chapters, from the first one being in the state of hallucination and hypnotisation to the last lost in the minds of craziness.
