↸ Layout, text and icon design for ArtEZ Theatre & Dance magazine. Including interviews, photo series and several articles about the bachelor and master programs of ArtEZ Arnhem and Zwolle. The magazine can be rotated 180 degrees to switch from English to Dutch. The magazine includes 7 unique icons, each representing a different department of the academy. These icons are highlighted in the index section and can be found throughout the entire magazine (as a running footer).

Rietveld Solar Observatory
design research
07/2022
↸ For over 400 years, scientists and amateur watchers have been tracking and drawing the dark spots that appear, sometimes frequently, sometimes abundantly, on the sun. These spots, namely sunspots, are caused by our star’s turbulently rotating magnetic field.
The installation Solar Observatory - White Light Sunspot Observations (designed to be stationed in- and outside) is a make-shift observatory that can host three sunspotters at a time to perform solar observations. During the observations, participants look through a telescope and record the current activity of the sun while simultaneously reflecting on themselves in the act of observing. A specially designed fill-in form guides the participants through the different stages of the sunspot observation, as well as creates an archive of all encounters with the observatory. The installation aims to reposition ourselves as we question our relationship with celestial bodies such as the sun.

Who is Measuring?

↸ Measurement is one of the most ordinary actions. We exchange its universal language whenever using numbers and units with exactitude. This very ubiquity, though, makes measurement relatively invisible and mostly functional. But what exactly is ‘the meter’? Who is measuring? presents the story of 2 astronomers who established “the meter” in the 18th century. This measurement would be eternal and universal. But in this process, the presence of people lead to an error in the results. Thus an error in this universal ‘meter’.
The project highlights these hidden layers of something seemingly rational like the metric system and further questions the urge of people to measure anything and everything surroundings us. With digital devices and techniques the body progressively becomes the center of measuring. In which bodily movement is quantified and translated to data. Yet, how rational can these measurements be when being based on something as inefficient and inconsistent as the physical body?

↸ Re-design of OASE 54, a text which questions the city as an organism that moves and grows, altering its surroundings. What if images start growing and hereby leave their ‘original' frames? How does the text react and relocate itself? Entire pages start shifting throughout the book. Footnotes and image descriptions are ‘sent backwards’, remaining visible on the inside of the folded paper. The layout is not planned, it just happens; like the city.
↸ Re-design of The Overstory, a book by Richard Powers. Consisting of a book and folded sheets.
