Din pust, din stemme

Description

Ongoing

Din pust, din stemme (Your Breath, Your Voice) is the catalogue for the exhibition of the same name, curated by social anthropologist Dr. Michelle Tisdel. The publication displays visual and oral history documentation regarding the George Floyd protests in Oslo.

The graphic design strategy functions like a political pamphlet, guiding the reader between speeches, oral history interviews and articles activated by documentary imagery. An extended use of HEX Franklin with custom cuts of varying compression creates typography that breathes with urgency — sometimes set for reading, other times compelling the reader towards revolt and action. Every design decision carries meaning: from the hand-sized format for transit, to the red thread and exposed binding showing names of people who lost their lives to police brutality, to the golden ink celebrating community.

Co-published by Lift Every Voice, Plantas Press and Transcultural Arts Production (TrAP).
