(IN)Tangible World:
Posdigital Corporeality


For this comission I was asked to create a poster and a typeface for an exhibition being held in New York, supported by the AC/E Acción Cultural Española and different sponsors. The exhibition was curated by spanish, uk-based collective; Lava Art Project. 

The request itself was to create a bubbly-gummy typeface with the exhibition title and a fake digital aesthetic that could speak of the idea that grouped all the artists together: the relation of bodies and virtual environments. 
Also, the hybrid concept was heavily mentioned, with art pieces speaking about sexuality and feminism discourse, a gender-hybrid human shape was created in 3D to appear in the poster itself.

The final artwork was made with Photoshop, but the other different assets were crearted with Blender and Illustrator. For the typeface itself, a vectorized version was created before being sent to Blender, where I applied shapes, light effects and texture. The head modelling was created from scrach; both of them individually to create a differenciated face and then a mesh of them together.

The use of this assets was mostly digital, but then creating a leaflet for the exhibition that had the typeface as a logo on it.
