Projects

Project one of Visual Communication I called for a utilitarian object, devoid of stylization that we would research and document. Over the course of several weeks, I documented with black and white photography, wrote about, and drew the drafting compass. The photos were taken to show action, rest, parts, and every angle imaginable. The similarities between the styles of photographs taken and the way we are taught to lay out text in type I were intriguing. As the crits went by, type was gradually integrated into the square compositions with varying amounts of hierarchy. The final image and type compositions were mounted on foam board and put on display.
