    Artists, books, conversations
    Here, the challenge was to make the most of a rather tight budget, which we did by designing something that would function simultaneously as a poster and a leaflet. The activities — talks by artists working with the book format as a medium for creation — constituted a series, but since each artist takes a different approach, they were also distinctly individual events. This is why the paper used to photocopy each piece varies in colour. The regular graphic feature suggests a book drawn in perspective, which accentuates its volume. Similarly, when photographing the publications that would illustrate each presentation, we opted to maximise their three-dimensionality, to suggest volume spite the fact that only one ink was used in printing.
