//Formal Events//
This piece was inspired by big life events, Birth, Death, Marriages, and Milestones. A typographic illustration was created to represent each event, and these formal explorations of self generated typography were then transformed into an invitation, to my peers (other Graphic Design Students), to participate in the everyday act of making. A sort of Graphic Design call to action. When assembled, they form a box.
They read as follows:
Death: You are invited to formally pay tribute to design movements past, and lay them to rest beneath the ground you walk on today.
Birth: You are invited to to formally celebrate the fearless act of making something new, before you begin searching for its meaning.
Begin:You are invited to formally pursue any idea you love without knowing what it will lead to as long as you commit to figuring it out.
End: You are invited to formally explore beyond the point of reason, despite your own better judgment, and the critique of your mentors.
