nothing matters
“What we require is silence; but what silence requires is that I go on talking.”
— John Cage, 1961
Nothing Matters is a graduate thesis project exploring the concept of nothingness through art, philosophy, and daily life. It reflects on how absence and silence in design evoke emotion, provoke thought, and challenge norms.
The book’s minimalist design—set in Plantin, bound with exposed thread—embraces simplicity and stillness as a visual expression of its themes.
