As the graphic designer for Concordia University’s VAV (Visual Arts Visuels) Gallery,
a student-run exhibition space, I created the posters for each of their
monthly exhibitions. The gallery was looking for a visual aesthetic
that focused on strong typography, clean lines, and geometric shapes,
while communicating their commitment to exhibiting work from students of
all identities and levels of experience.
Rather than focusing on themed shows, the VAV decided to
instead assign a number to the majority of their exhibitions. This
presented me with a number of creative freedoms, yet the challenge was
to create a coherent identity while having each poster be unique without
any specific curatorial prompts. I based each poster off of a simple
template that kept the VAV logo consistent while giving myself space to
play with typography and other strong graphic elements.
Adobe Illustrator was used to create all graphics.
The posters were additionally formatted as Facebook event cover photos.
