Re-watched this video that I saw in the If You Could Collaborate exhibition a couple of months back, its just awesome. Never seen Ojay so excited over anything before

Bookbinding





Since one of my new resolutions was to draw more, I decided to go to bookbinding to make myself a nice sketchbook to draw in. Hopefully this will motivate me to get the old pencil onto paper again...

Model Making




This was for our 'Use the Library' project... I made a St. Peters House book sleeve to literally 'house' a series of books, each one with a reason to use the library as its title.

Typographic Spine

I made a set of letterpresses in the shape of vertebrae, with the letters increasing in size as you ascend the alphabet. These can stack on top of each other to form the structure of a human spine.



Below is an example of work printed using my typographic spine letters. White ink on black paper...

Book Sleeve

I produced an alphabet using joined up guitar chords layered over each other, called 'AlphaChords'. I made this sleeve out of guitar parts and card to keep the project together.

Screen Printing


A screenprinted t-shirt design based on an illustration from my sketchbook. I know Milton Glasers' logo has been overdone, but this isn't meant to have any deep meaning...
