Absence Exhibition
The Objective:
Create an conceptual exhibition to be shown at the SCAD Museum. Design the materials for the show, having to determine the story to connect the exhibition.
The Solution:
The whole concept of the exhibition was based on the word 'lacking' which I researched and developed ideas from findings. The reasoning for the graphics and type of simple forms was through the shapes representing objects that are there or missing.
Deliverables:
Logo, Environmental Graphics, Posters, Narrative Leaflet,

What is
EXHIBITION POSTER
Each individual person can interpret the design in their own way depending on what is lacking in their life, or if they even see lacking at all. For the tryptic I rotated the same shapes to represent different perspectives of seeing absence.

GRAPHICS
Lacking can mean someone or something in the world is missing someone or something.
When someone is lacking they can feel many emotions. They can feel like they are left out or worry about what people think. But in realization that may not be a big problem that needs to be worried about. People could be getting riled up over nothing. We are our most severe critic. It depends on the perspective they look at the situation. Obviously it is situational, some could be result in something bad but many are minor. Thinking through it from a different perspective can give you clues on how to solve it so that it
isn’t a threat.
NARRATIVE LEAFLET
While going around the exhibition,
a narrative is used to help explain more about the subject matter.
This piece has an array of lacking questions answered by people of different ages. As the graphics are geometric shapes I created this narrative using an square iron cross, revealing something new at every
turn of the page.

The lack of time to achieve what I want is my biggest complaint

PACKAGING
This product can be bought in the
gift shop. It's called 'Object' to show
it can be anything you want it to be, like a paper weight, ornament or container. I designed the box net my self as I wanted to create the feeling
of it slitting in half.
