Finalised ThumbPrint Poster (Moms)


As in previous posts, this is again the final design but he has lines in to add to the effect of fingerprints. It has the same amount of information in but now it looks a lot more like a fingerprint.

Mitchy Boy & Ikon Gallery Xhibitions.

So as part of contextual studies, we have been going around to some exhibitions to see different work from artists.
One of the interesting ones we have been to is by artist Mitchy Bwoi. He does alot of work with colour, and contours. & his work is bright and bold, and has typeography in it sometimes. His exhibition was in the Sauce Gallery @ Custard Factory.

Here are some xamples of his work:






Here is some stuff from the Ikon Gallery. Stuff done by various artists:

A Final POster..Created Using My Moms Thumb Print.


Moms thumb print:

This is one of the final designs i have produced. Im happy with the colours, and also the text on there. On the fingerprint itself it just has references to fingerprints and information about it. The body text is Verdna, and i used this because its a writing with good spacing between letters and readable, all the other designs will have different body text in there.
I think this shows difference in the posters.
Overall there is going to be fine, and im keeping to a pastel tone colour shceme.
Also i took note of some comments made on them, and made them look alot more like fingerprints by putting more ridges and lines in the design.

Type Design.




This is a design that i have made. This design is based an actual fingerprint, it was one of mine. The information included in it is random stuff about me. To fill up the typeography on it.

I stuck with a blue, background and kept to a minimal theme.

Plan for final pieces.

Now i have started looking at the comparison with the fingerprints, when i collect my brothers and my dads, i will start to make tyepography posters based on the shapes in the fingerprnt. In previous posts i have posted work that is a type on a fingerprint, but now i can examine how fingerprints look properly, using the information from my family and create some really good posters. I still have not thought about what to include in the type itself, has previously i have included stuff about the DNA database. But i will see how this plans out.

Families Fingerprints..

Here is just a print of my mom's and mine right hand. Done with red ink. There are three lots of rubbings, all from the same hand just was comparing how much ink gave you the most clear print. And it was the 2nd row of fingerprints.



Here is when the comparison for the final project is happening. I have took the thumb print of my mum and me and placed it together to see what i can see is similiar between them both.
