Fahrenheit 451 – Exploring The Concept Of ‘Loss’

This was a project looking at the history of book burnings. My main inspiration for this project was Fahrenheit 451 written by Ray Bradbury because of its focus on the historical role of book burning in suppressing dissenting ideas. I created a small publication breaking down the narrative of Fahrenheit 451 using quotes and illustrations before going onto creating my book which had a very stylised timeline depicting most of the major book burning events in human history to help commemorate the books and knowledge which has been lost at the hands of censorship.
