Work in Progress Exhibition

I'm not really happy with this project, but here are my two posters for the "Work in progress" exhibition:


Use your Handwriting
Almost all of our visual communication is delivered using the products of the digitalized world: SMSes, emails, web pages, facebook, twitter; the list of possibilities is endless. The digitalization has made it easy to reach out to the mass world, and there are a lot of advantages. But new inventions make the oldones ‘out of date’. We use them less, which in this subject is our handwriting.

Researchers think that the development is problematic, because it is so important to be able to communicate using our handwriting. The posters in this exhibition are a part of a campaign where I want to put focus on handwriting, and encourage people to use it more. To draw attention I created a design with sexual undertones. I want people to wonder what the poster is all about, before the second poster reveals the message. Use your handwriting.

Poster for the "Work in progress" Exhibition

We are going to have a Work in Progress Exhibition, where we show our current work, and the class had to make a poster. Since it's only work in progress, we figgured out that we wanted something simple, so we came up with an idea about using a stamp. The concept is to use the stamp on different paper, walls, textiles ++, it is suppose to look a bith rough. My design for the stamp was choosen, not that it's really good, but only a few people came up with design sketches...

James Turrell

James Turrell is currently running an exhibition at the Gagosian Gallery, and after beeing recommended by David, Malin and I decided to take a look.  Turrell had created a faboulus light installation, which played with our sense of time and space. We went to a room where lots of lights made us loose the feeling about where the room ended, we could'nt see the walls, and the room looked a bit foggy. A strange feeling!

I've borrowed the picture from Google...
