Role: Lead book designer and art director-The purpose of this book is to commemorate artists & writers exhibited at Xpace Cultural Centre during '20-'21. Resonating with 70s punk culture, '20-'21 was a time of making do with what one had—thus inspiring my art direction with the quirks of punk-zine making. Subtle design elements within the book include images treated with roughly-cut borders & ball pen digital brushes created for underlines. Yellow highlighter lines made from digitally-treated marker scans were also created to highlight text citations in a book dotted with interesting references. The result is an expressive yet clean art book that proudly displays the work of Xpace's exhibited creatives in a culturally relevant environment. 300 copies were printed, perfect bound, and sold to help raise funds for Xpace Cultural Centre.
