'Life beyond the big puddle' is an authentic diary gathering raw insights from my first trip to the US. In the form of irregular notes and transcriptions of my WhatsApp messages back home to the Czech Republic,
I create my own memory of my 'trail of courage' beyond the big puddle. Come with me to a new world full
of differences, pitfalls and surprises and spend a month with me in a foreign country on your own. My diary will introduce you to American stereotypes that we as Europeans are not prepared for, intertwined with the story of my daily life here.

z fotek, které jsem posílala domů.
Použila jsem recyklovaný papír
a otevřenou šitou vazbu.
Celý projekt byl klauzurní prací letního semestru 2024
na VOŠ Scholastika, kde jsme společně vytvořili koncept
“Have you seen my books?”, kterým jsme se prezentovali na výstavě Designblok - Prague International Design Festival, GHMP Art Book Fair, Litr Olomouc, Miss Read - The Berlin Art Book Fair Festival.
Součástí byl i výšlap na Sněžku, kde jsme na samotném vrcholu vystavovali naše práce.

The diary has been created in
a style that may be described as "punk." The publication contains
a plethora of illustrations derived from photographic material that was transmitted to the author's family. The paper used was recycled, and the binding was open-sewn.
The entire project constituted
a thesis for the summer semester
of 2024 at the VOŠ Scholastika.
In collaboration with my colleague, we devised the concept "Have you seen my books?" which we showcased at the
Designblok - Prague International Design Festival, the GHMP Art Book Fair, the Litr Olomouc event, and the Miss Read - Berlin Art Book Fair Festival. Furthermore, the project included a hike to Sněžka, where the work was exhibited
at the summit.
