At the end of vertical line. An exercise book
Joyce Lam
An exercise book for imagining possible family forms and various definitions of ‘family’. Inspired by existing laws and institutions and written in the second person perspective with 'you' as the subject, the instructions and explanations in this exercise book is a thought experiment that allows the reader to freely create their own ideal family.
The book is made to the size of a standard passport—an important document that is used as a proof of identity. The cover uses textured paper that reminds one of human skin, or the moon's surface where there are no national boundaries. The resulting design is a 'white passport’, drifting between different laws and systems.
