I wanted to explore the idea of how a culture can be collected, preserved, and remembered through visual artifacts.

I built a fictional Moroccan postal archive where each stamp acts like a small piece of a much larger story.

The five pieces are connected as one collection, moving through different parts of Moroccan life — from royal ceremony and marketplaces to music, interiors, clothing, and identity.

I wanted the collection to feel like something you could discover, rather than just look at.

So I turned the archive into an interactive magazine, where each piece opens up into its own little story, showing the original Met artwork, my reimagination, and the thinking behind it.

The whole thing is built around the idea of collecting fragments and bringing them together into one archive.

A collection that never existed, but could have.
