Project Information

The Weight of Broken Men was a book of collected writings from a Melbourne-based performance practitioner. Each piece of text was taken individually and further developed alongside its accompanying illustrations to progress and challenge its structural form. The process of concurrently developing the image and words recontextualised the writings, changing their original intent as performative text. The illustrations imposed their own visual stories on the pieces, both through their pictorial style and through their deliberate distancing from the text's primary connotations.
