THE BOOK OF GENESIS ACCORDING TO MY GRANDFATHER
Vasco Branco is my grandfather, living with Alzheimer’s disease for more
than 10 years. I used the Book of Genesis, a reference to him and to many, to
represent the progressive state of confusion that he lives in everyday.
I identified 4 types of confusion: about objects, people, places and
time. These are expressed by 4 types of typographic changes in the text of the
Book of Genesis.
Besides my grandfather, my grandmother suffers from the same disease. I
used examples and episodes I experienced with them in order to create this
book.
