A Difficult Choice
»I will never know where the other path would lead me
but does it matter if this one turned out well?«
Coming from the tendency to question any minor decision, let alone major lifechanging ones, this book explores the idea of life as a sequence of dilemas and their solutions. The tiles of the book all fit next to one another, continuing the path of thread, building a textural map. The haptic nature of the tiles invites a finger to follow the path, a meditative process that hopefully brings ease before the next decision to make, as the map grows and shows a bigger picture: one by one, each piece is different, but on a bigger scale, differences are minor and dillemas are always smaller once they're in the past.
