CHERINE FAHD ISBN: 978-0-6484899-9-3 ‘A Story’ plays with the intimate and voyeuristic looking of social media within the pages of a photobook. The artist made an Instagram story every night for a year. The stories were made up of images she had taken on her phone and screen grabs from pictures found on the internet.
