"Sin Fins" is a book I made from a Design and Visual Communications course, where the idea was to take any object and digitize it to create an icon. From my wine bottle opener, there was a prompt to create many iterations that met criteria such as allusion, warping, and metaphor. After this, it was revealed that the items would become a book that we would create based on an existing story or of our own creation. I found the premise of this story online about Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, and his travels. Dionysus encounters pirates which try to capture him and he turns them into dolphins to spare them from drowning. From these sins, their fins were created as a reminder of their actions.
