Work Description
best comes in pairs is a five-books-in-a-box intended to be an immortalization of lost memories and self discovery, yet also a eulogy of bygone days—and most of all, a love letter to the artist's late father. The book's central theme revolves around pairs; how her experiences parallel her father's, revealing hidden similarities and establishing their forgotten connection. Each book in the box represents a source of memory she has of him. Presented like a time capsule, the book symbolizes revisiting old memories and the closing of a chapter of her life.
