The final report is the ultimate journey of institutional critique, capturing my unique perspective and experiences while inviting others to join in the conversation. This report, presented as a journal, is composed of three distinct layers: school structure, personal life, and critique, each offering a unique critical perspective on the institution.
The school structure is presented as a corporate publication and also also as the course timetable, the official materials typically associated with educational institutions. Incorporating everyday photos reflects my personal experiences and interactions within the institution. By including these intimate glimpses into an individual's life, a sense of authenticity and relatability are infused into the journal. On top of two layers, the critique delved into various aspects of the school and questioned its practices and policies. The project strikes a balance between offering fewer judgments from one’s subjective perspective, and a defensive attitude via questioning and challenge.
Questions are thought-provoking and encourage readers to engage with the topics by stimulating their own critical thinking. By adopting this approach an interactive experience is able to happen within the journal, where readers actively participate in the process of reflection and analysis. The journal invites readers to navigate through the different layers, offering them an understanding of the complex dynamics within the institution.
