Wild typography



October 2019





I spent four weeks to explore Providence, searching for an alphabet to use in this project. Here is a complete alphabet made up of unique letter found and photographed by me. In addition to photographing each letter I found, I recorded the date, time, location, weather conditions, and additional field motes that describe the landscape in which my letter was capture.

Working with the typographic specimen I've collected,
I created a series of cards showcasing the letterforms and information I've collected.





The card consists of two parts: the card itself and a cover. On the card, the letterform and the information about the letter are weaved together. The process of lifting the cover and finding information in the composition is a metaphor of finding the hidden stories behind the letters I encountered.
