Age of eruption

Age of Eruption documents the stages of the adolescent growth process. The book uses the physicality of reversed letterpress impressions as blind-embossings to signify this growth, reminding us of the discomfort felt during youth physically, emotionally, and sexually. The illustrated “eruptions” throughout the book urge us to recall common growing experiences during formative years and thus reconcile them.
