A few spreads from my MFA document, ‘Aesthetic Representations of Violence’—in which my main creative project, Visualizing the Art of War, and other design projects created during my MFA at VCU in Design/Visual Communication, are presented and explained in terms of approach and research interest.

The book presents my research questions, hypothesis, precedents and influences, methodologies, notes on technology, final evaluation, and reference bibliography.
