An assignment from my Word & Image II class to design promotional material for a (fictional) contemporary dance performance based on a poem I selected from Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, with my choice of choreographers and composers to "collaborate" with. I experimented with and ultimately developed a typographic identity for the performance through a series of hierarchy and compositional exercises. Through careful analysis of the poem, my choice to juxtapose celestial and earthly bodies led me to search for ways in which type could exist on different planes.
