Written in Their Wings explores the extraordinary journey of monarch butterflies through an illustrated research installation that includes a handmade zine. Combining riso printing, mapping and handmade bookmaking, the project traces their seasonal migration while revealing the fragility and interconnectedness of their lives. Through visual storytelling, it transforms scientific information into an accessible and tactile narrative, inviting viewers to reconsider migration not simply as a natural phenomenon, but as a story of survival, transformation and connection across vast landscapes.
