 “I wanted to create pieces that can go beyond the walls of graphic design, under the hypothesis that it would be possible to transcend language by freeing characters from their meaning and reinterpreting them as shapes,”

- The applied texture and narrative within the pieces is thee most enticing aspect of the work.
- The play between the physical and digital is really nice, it invites the audience to question the works and delve deeper into the purpose.
- When Murakami mentions the want to remove language from the characters, this is a really interesting concept. How could this be used within the project, maths is a universally understood language sow hat would it mean to take that away?
- Black ink only, colour is added by the background, could be something to experiment with especially when designing promotional materials to keep the costs down.
