Personas with an edge…

Personification: a collection
of recipes

Combining the elements of story and bridging them in the creation of a collection of “personas”.

For this experimental exercise, I spoke with three willing participants; two friends, one a stranger. I wanted to learn about the less visible attributes that comprise their being. I wanted to dig into places often unseen, and see pieces of suffering, joy, curiosity that make us all the humans we are.

This process focused on unveiling the core human attributes that we all have in some form, but tend to hide from plain sight. Why do we shy away from showing who we really are? Often, from this openness we create resonance. And from this place of resonance, connection forms.

Authenticity brings willingness. Authenticity brings us closer together. What’s your invisible story?
