British Library - Posters

Two typographic illustrations to be exhibited in The British Library, showcasing “The World’s Knowledge”.

“Everything is beautiful if you want to experience it totally.”
Charles Manson quotation sculpted from mixed media. Whilst his quotation is about beauty, we felt it a fitting juxtaposition to reference the crime committed by Manson. The image itself is comprised of an unappealing combination of off-cuts from the butcher, human hair, and bodily fluids.

“If we don’t believe in freedom of expression for
people we despise, we don’t believe in it at all.”
Noam Chomsky quotation made using pen and ink on skin. The image does for popular society what the quotation says, giving a loud voice to extremism.
