season preview

Biannually the Wexner Center for the Arts distributes a brochure highlighting upcoming exhibition, performing arts, membership, film/video, and education events.

performing arts cards

Every season the Performing Arts Department at the Wexner Center for the Arts mails out event postcards reminding patrons about upcoming shows. These cards fit together as a set, yet may stand alone as individual pieces.

exhibition catalogue

Zoe Leonard showed work at the Wexner Center for the Arts and helped create this catalogue for her exhibition. The photographs in the catalogue trace the “layered, frayed, and quirky” beauty of a fading way of life. Analogue studies both the vanishing city storefronts and the endangered status of photography itself. This same idea followed through in the design of the piece. The cover is reminiscent of library binding–simple, unassuming and reminiscent of the past.

Saucony Trade Booth

The materials for this booth had to look professional, be sturdy, fit within the limited budget and be easily transported, assembled and disassembled. It was made of separate panels to allow the size of the booth to be altered depending on available space. Inside the booth are textures representing the different terrain where one can use Saucony shoes. Around the exterior of the booth are images of racers and clear bubbles showing shoes and textured backgrounds.

handmade book

The goal of this project was to study the bookmaking process from editorial decision-making to the final design to production of a hand-bound book. The only requirement was to use one’s name as the topic for the book. Each letter of my name was created out of images or materials that represented who I am. An accordion fold book was the best way to show the pages. Pages can be viewed individually or unfolded into a single composition.

photographics

This was an exploration using one object, a film reel and one letter. The lowercase Bodoni “f” was chosen because the strokes and curves of the letter mirror and integrate well within the shape of the reel. More elements were then added to the design. It was a great challenge to successfully organize many pieces within a single composition.
