Here . Distant . Vanishing . Wall hang

Here is the wall hang of my project old stones, new valleys, in search of high places



The idea is that the journey along the pictures acts as a route to climbing the mountain and experiencing the views.

Here . Distant . Vanishing - Poster Design


Here is the poster I designed for the Here Distant Vanishing exhibition that I was invited to be a part of. The cover picture is by Jonna Pennanen ( http://cargocollective.com/jpp ). It was really an honour and privilege to go to Berlin to show my work and to be asked to make the poster and flyer designs. I wanted the poster to be quite simple and have a clear clean layout to match Jonna's image.

Logo Design for ArtbyHec


So, this is more or less the final version. I used a simple sans serif font to create each individual letter and customised each with vector graphics. Really the bold contrasting colours and difference between standard and italic characters represent her bold personality and creativity in what she does. I chose bold colours as it reminds me of some of her current projects, the pictures she has sent to me and seeing her past works i think this aesthetic fits well to her. I had some other ideas, such as to put paintbrush silhouettes into the letters and give them even more life, but this just couldn't work and I think actually the logo would have looked overdone with a paintbrush pattern in it.
