Sophie Henson

Beautifully bright screen prints by Sophie Henson. I was initially drawn to the 3d posters as i'm working on producing my own 3d poster to enter into a lucky dip draw at the end of year show.

The three city prints are a wonderful set of :

Limited Edition of 25
3-colour silk screen print
270gsm colourplan paper
Signed and numbered 

Among her client list are big clothing labels Calvin Klein, Puma, Vans, Levis, Billabong and Stussy.

The  typography below reminds me of Stussy clothings signature type styles. And also has hints of Ralphsteadman.

Patrick Fry

Patrick Fry was part of the collaboration that produced the No. Zine.

He oversaw Design and art direction of a book celebrating 50 years of PYMCA photographs. 

The book was later recreated as an exhibition at The Royal Albert Hall. This book looks extremely well finished. I love the brightly coloured front cover and how that contrasts with the one colour print inside.

New York Times Remixed
Every day for four months I received the New York Times, read it and composed something from it that would fit into a seven by ten inch spiral bound journal. In doing so I was able to move away from the computer and let the project simply evolve on its own over time. The final outcome was a visual account of my response to news, culture, arts and fashion from that period.

Over the last year or so i've done less and less drawing and experimenting with cutouts but this really grabbed my attention and gave me some direction for my design context publication in terms of a product to display my research and add some context to my work

Karl Toomey

Artwork to promote Synth Eastwood's Fast Forward show at Birmingham's Flatpack Festival. A video, flyers and posters were produced around the theme of Fast Forward. Video can be seen at link below (produced with Synth Eastwood)

Fast Forward With Synth Eastwood from Synth Eastwood on Vimeo.

Karl Tommey's website is filled with stunning work in a variate of media and style.

The poster/flyer above echoes Fred's point about there being more to life than A-format. This poster/flyer for the Film festival resembles a film reel and the type works perfectly on the reverse and everything is unified by the one colour print.

His small publication work is simple in its delivery and strong in aesthetic making use of the pink stock and monotone print for its pink cover.

The monotone imagery continues within the booklet with splashes of pink print and stock appearing just to add a little variety to the beautiful illustrations and mixed medias.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

His book cover work for this brief uses a metallic foil against a backdrop of black card and inside a one colour print consisting of varied page layouts and hand drawn illustrations.

I also wish i'd have found this when i was doing my blurb for the Faber and Faber brief. It would have come in handy. But i don't want to go back and touch any more of that brief as it would put me further behind schedule.
