Nina Andorf
Using Georges Pérec's The Page (a poetic essay on the anatomy and journey of the parts that make up writing on a page) I was able to visualize Georges words using type as image.

By experimenting with typographic forms and finding ways to create texture with them, I was able to use them as a medium to illustrate his ideas. Although some experiments were more about the literal representation of his words, such as how they can be organized on a page, others were more metaphorical diving into theory and philosophy of words, alphabets, and sentence structure.

The final product was a book comprised of several layouts that visualize his words in a way that's both typographic and at times highly conceptual.
