The goal of this project is to design a promotional component for The Next Wave Festival using a bold and practical typographic system. I combined the “X” in the word “next” with my custom typeface and used it as a signature element in a set of booklets. Since “X” means undefined in algebra, it is a perfect representation for TNW Festival 2020– mysterious yet with a lot of surprises.

POPPERS® EMBASSY

This theoretical museum celebrating John Waters interprets the story of the cult-favorite movie director.

Poppers muscle relaxers were a staple of underground gay clubs and bath houses in the 1970s. Today they are still used by gay men everywhere, primarily for sex. I used them to represent John Waters and his art because they are disturbing, erotic and addictive. My concept museum has two exhibitions: one of Waters’ movies and another for his visual art, recently acquired by the Baltimore Museum of Art.

THROUGH YOUR BUTTH*LE

“To me, bad taste is what entertainment is all about.” Inspired by Waters’ famous quote, I designed a narrative exhibition connecting movie characters built on bad taste. Visual elements can be applied with maximum flexibility, so I used forms inspired by human anatomy.
