Educational Loan Zine

2023



In this deeply personal zine, I navigate the emotional landscape of pleading for an education loan to pursue my design studies. The tone stays comedic but behind the comedic facade lies a serious issue: the hurdles and rejections faced in securing a loan for design education. This project becomes a cathartic expression of the challenges I've confronted—convincing the bank to grant me this loan, while they are firm about their knowledge of the financial uncertainties and the societal skepticism surrounding the pursuit of a creative career.

The visual restriction, challenging me to convey emotions solely through the professor's preselected images, added an exciting layer to the creative process.







The zine was made under the guidance of Thomas Wedell and Nancy Skolos at Rhode Island School of Design, 2023.
