The Idea

Created for Ligature, a tactile typography exhibition at Ringling College of Art and Design, this project explores the relationship between money, time, and value. Using shredded currency, I constructed a dollar sign that comes to life through stop-motion animation, transforming into a clock that runs out of time before becoming a heart that eventually dissolves. Each transformation represents a different form of value, highlighting how what matters most extends beyond money.
