The Everything Crisis

We're more educated, more connected and technology is advancing more rapidly than ever, but that pace seems to fall away as soon as it comes to the systems that keep us all alive. 

We all must be part of a ‘rapid and unprecedented social transformation’, however, no one seems to be reacting to the gravity of the situation.

No one wants to hear this message.  No one wants change.  It feels like no one is listening. Like we're on our own.  Those who care against everybody else.

I want to find some hope.  I want to find some unity - we're the cause of the problem, hope for the solution and a reason it's worth fighting for survival.  The loss of billions of amazing people is unacceptable.

However, billions of people is just a statistic.

I want to find out about individuals.

Screen Printing

A screen print design depicting the contrasting media views on climate change with newspaper front pages

This month I've been working on screen printing for the first time! I've put together some rough designs and will update here when I have some results.

Film Photography

Cyanotype and resin coated photographs, some of which have been manupulated and stained using bleach, tea and coffee, presented on a board covered in financial times newspapers

Last year I picked up my Mum's old OM-2 and have dived down the rabbit hole of developing, enlarging, printing and scanning black and white film. This wall of photos on the financial times is part of my project, The Everything Crisis, which also includes a book.

Graphic Design

Fake BP advert saying "Climate concious strategy to ensure a secure fure for our investors: Oil Rigs Float!"
Fake BP advert saying "Raisng sea levels to increase the carbon storing capacity of the ocean."

Inspired by Ways of Seeing and Spelling Mistakes Cost Lives, I've enjoyed thinking about how advertising can change opinions. In response I've been designing subvertising like posters.
