Auto-da-Fé is a Portuguese word that literally translates to "Act of Faith". In his works, Elias Canetti is in a constant battle against the wind of conventions, a call to individuality and freedom of thought.
I use the writer's handwriting symbolically and illustrate his resilience and willingness to challenge the status quo to encourage new ideas and perspectives.
