Briar Mark

Beautifully handmade type by Auckland, New Zealand based artist & designer Briar Mark. She hand stitched all the type, and made a few jokes in the process. Brilliant!:

'I could have done this on my Mac'


I came across this piece of typography work by Briar Mark and thought it linked in quite well with the themes explored in my essay, employing the use of handmade techniques, in this case stitching on paper, to create a design, rather than opting for a digital process. I really like the texture created from using the multi-coloured thread to stitch in to the card and creating a 3D effect.
