1 Title: The End Is Near Medium: Digital Print Size: 13" x 19" Date: 2010 Description: This poster, inspired by Neville Brody and the impact of humans on the environment, was done as an assignment to explore the strengths and weaknesses of successful grid structures. 3 Title: Oh Em Gee Medium: Digital Print Size: 13" x 19" Date: 2010 Description: Inspired by David Carson, this poster employs the use of a broken grid structure to effectively communicate a slightly humorous idea for an teen gossip magazine cover. 5 Title: Real OG Medium: Woodcut, Digital Print, and Gouache Size: 15" x 22" Date: 2011 Description: Assigned as a project in Intermediate Printmaking to "refresh" ourselves back to the many printmaking processes, this piece is an abstract representation of a lyric in a song that speaks of O.G.'s (original gangsters) and how this label seems to drip from their personality. 7 Title: Haters gonna Hate Medium: Screen Print and Letterpress Size: 10" x 13" Date: 2011 Description: This piece, created in Intermediate Printmaking, was inspired by a close friend who is a citizen of Syria. He is often held on the negative end of a false stereotype about people from Arab countries. I felt the need to point out just how ridiculous this stereotype is. | 2 Title: Eat Snow Medium: Digital Print Size: 13" x 19" Date: 2010 Description: Designed as part of a series of posters in Experimental Typography, this poster was inspired by Josef Muller Brochman's "Der Film" poster and my passion for snowboarding. 4 Title: No Hot Beverages Medium: Silk Screen Size: 15" x 22" Date: 2010 Description: As part of an assignment to explore "culture", I observed the unspoken culture of Utah. The idea of culture being hidden and suppressed reminded me of soviet era propaganda, which I then compared to Mormon history to complete this piece. 6 Title: Type Configurations Medium: Digital Print Size: 17" x 17" Date: 2010 Description: These pieces were completed as a class project that explored the use of various configured typographic forms. It was a way of learning the importance of configuration to create new meaning, which has helped me throughout all the other classes I have taken thus far. 8 Title: Hells Yeah Medium: Letterpress Size: 11" x 10" Date: 2010 Description: Originally as part of a type configuration assignment in Experimental Typography, this officially was created using letterpress. The letter forms seemed to fall into place as this was being configured which created new and interesting shapes. |
