Typography, often confined within the realms of design and communication, is more than just the arrangement of type for readability and visual appeal:
With qualities that extend beyond its practical purpose, offering ways for expression beyond direct communication.
Written language frequently carries an air of authority and truth, no matter how warranted.
Art rarely adheres to such rigid definitions. What happens when the two intersect? The exhibition seeks to loop upon typography’s capacity
to transcend its conventional boundaries, transforming into a vehicle for artistic expression and conceptual exploration.
It wants to provide a glimpse, albeit small and incomplete, into the many ways in which typography can be manipulated and reimagined to yield unexpected results.
