For my process, i played alot with the Xray theme in order to
“reveal without revealing” the cocoon.

The idea was to transit from life to death along the zine’s pages,
following the life cycle of the butterfly. Starting from life, then
ending in death.
Within the Black Zine, the butterfly never breaks free, and thus dies within
its cocoon.
I did som experimentation with the peeling effect, to try to hide something below the black
zine as the viewer peels it away and reveals new information.
The image of the left is below the image of the right, and when peeled reveals more information.
Another test of the peeling concept.
