Over Trifles

Editorial | Archive | Concept

2019

This project was inspired by a shocking news story about a mother suffocating her daughter with her own hand, revealing the darker sides of human nature. The idea that even the most ordinary objects can become weapons of violence led me to collect 30 real cases, where everyday items were used to commit murder.

The collection is presented as an archive, where viewers first encounter simple tool descriptions. As they delve deeper, they uncover the harrowing stories behind each case. This project aims to make people confront the hidden darknesswithin humanity, shown through the most mundane objects.

> Part I

> Archive Folders – Using the form of archive folders, it details the unexpected aspects of each case.

> Part II
