- artist notesThe Elements of Style is the definitive and classic manual on the principles of writing: a handbook on the English Language. Jacqueline Kennedy personified elegance, grace, glamour, and tradition with a uniquely American twist. Her commitment to her children struck a cord both deeply personal and universal for most Americans. She seemed to provide the handbook on the American family. This piece, "Elements of Style", questions the conceptions of tradition versus modernity, nature versus technology, and intimate, family relationships versus social media. We don’t seem to have a handbook for this yet.
