Features

2024

More and more people are advocating for gender-sensitive language to combat discrimination, yet its place in written text still faces limited acceptance. I am delighted to offer a glimpse into my bachelor's thesis on gender-inclusive typography in the latest issue of PAGE. My typographic experiments for a more gender-sensitive written language aim to move towards greater inclusivity. ✨

Exhibitions

2023
Berlin

Exhibiting my project »Don’t Be A Spreader«.

The A—Z Super Collective Market simultaneously explores community and commerce in graphic design. It is an initiative by the A—Z Collective, a space for communal practice running during 2023. The Collective is made up of a multidisciplinary group of creatives who want to explore different formats of collaboration and co-creation inspired by community-building methods such as Micro Solidarity, Liberating Structures, and Emergent Strategies.

Dysphemism is a term used in linguistics for a linguistic expression that contains a negative evaluation of persons, things or circumstances negative evaluation or evokes negative associations with them. That's what my project is about »We Are All The Same«.

The postcards are the result of students in the 2nd semester of the Industrial Design and Communication Design courses at HTW Berlin in the field of perception and communication theory.
