Artwork: "Mmba MMbaba MM" Illustrated book

The book tells her story of being born deaf. At the age of three and a half she had cochlear implant surgery and at the age of four began to hear. In first grade she knew only 20 words. "Until this very day I live in two parallel worlds- one hearing and the other not", she tells. In her final project for her BA she chose to create a book that would express her experiences and sensations through words and images.
