Creating connection through personal stories & illustration
Dear Ruksi Project
This project is built through authentic storytelling, vulnerability and shared compassion. It functions almost as an illustrative advice column: it invites the public to share their feelings with me anonymously; in return, I create an illustration to capture their feelings. I've drawn over 50+ stories, many of which can be read on my blog.
Below you will see examples of letters sent to me which are distilled down to a singular obscure emotion phrase.
The Power of Creative Storytelling
It's been powerful to be directly involved in creating work that is deeply personal to someone else. The letters I receive have been heart-wrenching and also beautifully honest. They have showed me that although we may feel alone, we are not as alone as we may think; we're living one big human experience together.
