Traits

Movement

ZinepunkGrunge

Imperfect, choppy layouts and heavy analog textures acting as a gritty, human counterbalance to overly sanitized, AI-generated digital art.

Typography

BoldGroteskGrotesk

Thick, intentional lettering providing necessary structural weight to modern minimalist layouts.

Palette & Light

HighEnergyHyper-Saturation

High-saturation, unexpected hues injecting playful personality and warmth into clean geometric spaces.

Layout

HardCropAggressive Crop

Subjects severed at the frame edge — faces, objects, and letterforms cut hard rather than contained, using the crop itself as a compositional act.

Treatment

AnalogNoiseGrain / Texture Check

Heavy analog noise, rough scans, and tactile textures serving as an authentic defense against smooth AI perfection.

PrintDotHalftone

Visible dot screens, misregistration, and CMYK separation left exposed as evidence of physical printing — the mark of the process itself, at any number of colours.

Medium

PosterWorkPoster / Out-of-Home

Single-surface display work built to be read at distance — bills, gig posters, and out-of-home placements.

Subject

LandFormLandscape & Nature

Terrain, weather, water, and growth, with the natural world rather than human presence carrying the frame.
