I woke up is a visual and literary daily diary that consisted of making a piece every day for 11 months based off of my daily experiences. The purpose of this series was to visualize and memorialize the subtle inspirations that can be found in the mundane and repetitive cycles of our lives. Through combining  the date, the time I wake up in the morning, text based elements, and a seemingly random place from each given day, I am creating all encompassing mementos out of moments we most often overlook, while touching on the relationships we form with them.
