Culture Jammed Logo T-shirt

This is a Culture Jamming Logo T-shirt with an upside down Nike.

An upside down Nike appears on this Culture Jamming Logo T-shirt. The new logo has the same colour scheme as the old one. Instead of Nike, the design now features Hike, which illustrates a person hiking a hill with a backpack.

In order to create this piece, I used geometric forms to create a figure. The Nike logo was turned 180 degrees after the figure was correctly formed and gathered. Impact was the typography utilised in the new logo. The t-shirt photo was then downloaded from the internet.

Propaganda Poster

This is a Propaganda poster with a tree branch sticking out encouraging people to grow more trees.

In order to create this piece, I applied geometric forms to create a hand. Geometric tree branches were gathered together after the hand was successfully formed. However, the poster needed to be improved, thus the geometric construction was replaced with a real hand pointing its finger at the audience. A pen tool was used to sketch in the entire hand and tree branches. This poster’s typography was bold Sans-Serif.

University of Hull Icon – Reimagined

First University of Hull symbol logo reimagined with geometric shapes.
Second University of Hull symbol logo reimagined with geometric shapes.
Third University of Hull symbol logo reimagined with geometric shapes.

This is a reinvented University of Hull symbol logo with geometric forms. The construction’s original symbol was a fire.

To create the triangles in this painting, I utilised a white arrow to ensure that they are authentic to the actual sign. Then I duplicated them and reassembled them into a flower. However, the fire colour palette must be maintained. The pattern tool was pushed and some shapes were repositioned after the flower and petals were completed. The technique was then performed for two more possible modifications.

Personal Calling Card

This is a calling card with the interpretation of nature by a butterfly flying its flower.

In order to make this calling card stand out, I interpreted a flower calling my name in black. Tulip will be surrounded by an orange border. So, using a red butterfly with a white outline, the tulip was screaming my name. Outside, the background will be blue, making the flower and butterfly stand out. I used a shape tool in Adobe Illustrator to create rectangles and rhombuses for this card. I used outline and then ungroup to resize each letter for Sans-Serif typography.

AESTHETICA 2023

An “AESTHETICA 2023” book cover with the use of illegibility in typography and contrasting photograph.

This is an AESTHETICA 2023 cover with unreadable typography and an image. Fares Micue, a self-taught Spanish photographer, took this shot of a woman with floating origami butterflies all around her (Fares Micue, 2021). A distorted Sans Serif typeface was utilised for the cover typography.

A shot from a stock was used to create this piece. The utilising letter symbol then outlined the word “AESTHETICA.” The letters were placed in the column and deformed with a white arrow after hitting ungroup. The letters were then regrouped and made white. The numbers “2023” were likewise twisted in the same way. At the right-hand side edge is a little BAFTA logo.
