Boundless: Book Cover

For the second year in a row, I designed a book cover for the university of Iowa Translate Iowa Project, a collection of poetry translated into many different languages. Two key themes from the poetry drove my visual decision: lost memory+loneliness and returning home+growth. I thought a wilted rose on the cover, having journeyed through the poetry, found revived on the back cover was the perfect visual metaphor.
