We viewed the work of Reza Abedini, Saed Meshki, and other Graphic artist from Iran. Their work was incredible! I can't wait to build around some of their ideas. The use of typography in certain page layouts was fantastic. Nothing is written in standard format. There is text on top on images, on top of other text, shaped around things, scrunched together, extremely large, and so many other styles. Being unable to read to text gave the graphic designs another design element. The text wasn't text any more, just design. How beautiful! i wasn't caught up in trying to understand the context or meaning, just admiring the images. I have many items of clothing that contain text in the graphics and people are always trying to understand and make reasonable sense of my clothes. Is that really the reason there is text abstractly place and interwoven with the graphics? maybe we should just let it be art instead of trying to make something of everything so we can have the power again.
