‘Sin’ is my response to the television show Fleabag, by exploring the themes of Grief, Sin and Confession as seen within the show, through publication. The project first originated from my interest of analysing film and television shows, exploring the themes, symbolism, characters, and overall meanings behind them. This sparked the beginning of this project, stemming from a strong interest in designing for the media. Fleabag conveys themes such as feminism and self-worth in a refreshing way that defies many stereotypes that are usually seen with television depicting women. In Season 2 of the series, the protagonist (Fleabag) is presented with a complex romantic relationship with a Priest, introducing the themes of Sin and Confession into the book in a modern context. In regards to design choices, I thought that these themes were most interesting to develop and explore. This publication is a personal interpretation of these themes in relation to the television show. Regarding strategy, there would be three books published in total as promotion to the program titled ‘Grief’ ‘Sin’ and ‘Confession’. What I present in my open project is volume two of the trilogy titled ‘Sin’.
