Habits and Human Behaviours

Almost 45% of our daily activities are performed automatically without us even acknowledging what we are doing. This documentary project aims to shed light on these activities while highlighting the meaning behind some of our daily habitual routines and behaviours. The goal is to create awareness around our subconscious activities. I want whoever is reading this piece to stop and think, to possibly re-evaluate their own lives and habits. To realise the impact these seemingly innocent and unconscious activities can actually have on our lives especially over time. My objective was to create a zine which would exhibit a collection of simple items, each representing daily habits or the individual elements that often make up a habit. This approach was to make the content as relatable and applicable as possible, showing the reader that it is in our daily rituals that we have the power to change and define who we are on a larger scale if we choose to become aware and conscious of our habits.
