Data is a portrait

1

Every mark is a person

A dot on the chart corresponds to a life, a routine, a decision made on a Tuesday morning.

2

Color carries meaning, not decoration

Five hues encode five dimensions of lived experience — purple for care, orange for effort, pink for connection.

3

Imperfection is the signal

Hand-drawn lines reveal uncertainty where machine paths pretend precision that never existed.

4

Small multiples tell big stories

Sixteen annotated panels uncover patterns no single dashboard could ever hold.
