Toiling

People from the West Midlands pronounce "tiling" as "toiling", which is fairly apt...

Here's my final typography poster, produced in association with Wolverhampton Art Gallery, to advertise an exhibition of the work of Ed Ruscha.


The "n" represents the tent, and I used this frame to order the rest of the text. The green is representative of the grass.

Upon completion, the main task we were set was to "tile" the piece together - in order to create an A2 piece, I instead printed onto two A3s, and tacked the two together. Not as easy as it sounds.

By the way, Ruscha didn't ever live in a tent (to my knowledge), for the full story of why the poster contains what it does click here.
