Exhibition Submissions - Printing Zine

I posted my OUGD503 Responsive outcome on my instagram, and was asked by L6 students Millie (who I collaborated with) and Lydia to display at their exhibition, 'Type in Motion', an exhibition focusing on typefaces based on experiences. My outcome applies to this as I created a typeface based on my developed idea of migration/immigration. I had to print a second copy as the book is still being marked.

The Exhibition

Type In Motion is a multi-disciplinary exhibition that explores "the process of being moved by experience". We have sought out a group of third year creatives currently studying at Leeds Arts University, to interpret this notion of how typography both consciously and subconsciously influences us throughout our day to day lives.

It's on at 6pm at The Brunswick on 10/03.

My Submission
As part of the submission, I initially had to send pictures and a rationale of the publication so that I would be selected. The images I sent were the photos I'd taken professionally of the publication showcasing different styles within the book. I also created a mini poster showcasing the typeface, with a mini rationale.
" Sanction is a typeface based on the natural forms of flora. It's a response to the idea of how natural migration is, and how migrants, immigrants, and refugees all allow communities to flourish. "

Producing the Zine

As my current book is being marked, I had to create a second copy for the exhibition. The only flaw with this book as due to issues with digital print, the inserts within the book that are on tracing paper had to be replaced with the normal 120 gsm Olin paper that's used throughout the book.

Other Exhibitions

I was asked by a student in Fine Art at University of Leeds who also deals with issues to do with immigration to present this publication in her exhibition in May. I aim to produce a perfect copy of it for the exhibition instead of presenting the one I've handed in, as there's some slight issues with the original, and the second copy will be handed in to the Type in Motion exhibition as part of their L6 Submission.
