Memos to Make Sense of Work

“Memos to Make Sense of Us” is an online space that invites users to write heartfelt memos to someone in the future, hoping to create small moments of positivity. These messages are reinterpreted through creative coding that responds to emotion, location, and weather. Visualized through Plutchik’s emotion model and geolocation data, each memo becomes a generative typographic piece—both a personal postcard and a fragment of a larger collective museum online.

Ants Type

An invite for a friends birthday picnic in the park using a type made from a picnics most unwanted guest. I mapped the beautiful ant from Ouvrières by Laure Azizi and Velvetyne to Honeymoon by Dinamo.

Be your fire

This poster explores inner energy as a personal source of strength and transformation. Through fluid, flame-like forms and intense contrasting colors, the work visualizes emotion in motion – unstable, powerful, and alive. It reflects the idea of embracing one’s inner fire rather than suppressing it, allowing identity to burn, change, and exist freely.

COLD CUT

Four poems rotate in a loop. They address the abstraction of written language, terminology, and communication as a visual form. Using Blender Geometry Nodes the typography is distorted procedurally in multiple ways.
AH. FADES CALLING DRIFTING VANISHING FALLING WHISPERS OH.
WE STAY WAITING. DRIFTING LOOSING SLIPPING, GONE. NOW:
COLD BURN TOUCHING; SHIFTING BREAKING FADING LOST-STILL.
COLD CUT! SHARP DIVIDING. FRACTURE BURNING DEEP & WIDE.

You won’t coerce this flesh (YWCTF)

“YWCTF” is a photographic poster that attacks governmental and ideological frameworks that oppress and criminalize bodily autonomy. The message is inscribed onto the skin, binding the protest and the body into a cohesive surface to establish bodily sovereignty as an imperative political reality rather than a debate matter. Trans bodies, female bodies, immigrant bodies, and all bodies shall not be coerced to suit any doctrine, including that of the observer as confronted by the pronoun “you.”

Absurdism

The concept of this project was inspired by the philosophy of the absurd — the compulsive search for meaning where there is none. As we vainly seek wholeness, the elements of our reality are abstracted into smaller and smaller parts, until they become pervasive noise. The more we try to make sense of it, the more it becomes unintelligible. This project depicts this spiritual, human process through visual experiment, using the tools of typography.

Kokichi

Text exploration with TouchDesigner.
Kokichi Mikimoto was a Japanese entrepreneur who is credited with creating the first cultured pearl and industry, his legacy served as an inspiration for this work.

No. 0016

I am an artist and graphic designer based in Rotterdam. My work explores experimental ways of creating letterforms, allowing process and chance to shape the outcome rather than predefined decisions.

0016 is a digital tool I developed to create letters without knowing the final result. Through interaction and transformation, the tool lets typographic forms emerge unpredictably as part of the process.

Too Damn Cold

I am an artist and graphic designer based in Rotterdam. My work focuses on creating letterforms that move between readability and abstraction. My process is experimental and driven by exploration, using materials, techniques and tools in both analogue and digital form. I embrace the unexpected and allow chance to influence the outcome.

For this work, I used a garbage bag, transparent foil and white ink, allowing the behavior of the materials to determine the letterforms without control.

Gässli Film Festival 2020

The key visual was developed through an experimental typographic process on 16mm blank film. Different typefaces were precisely cut onto the film using a cutting plotter, then manually colored with felt-tip pens. The film was projected and filmed again, reflecting the festival’s focus on filmmaking. Removing the letters revealed strong negative forms, resulting in a bold typographic identity.

LIQUID MERCURY

Liquid Mercury is an experimental display typeface inspired by molecular diagrams and the behaviour of liquid metal. Letters appear to form from smooth, viscous droplets, blending organic fluidity with digital precision. Interlocking joints and soft, rounded edges evoke molecular bonding, motion, and transformation. Designed for impact rather than long text, it suits sci-fi branding, experimental posters, and conceptual digital work, presenting a living, metallic, and evolving aesthetic.

Death, Transformation and Reincarnation of Type

A book of experimental typographic exploration inspired by natural processes. Fonts undergo digital decay through artificial intelligence, transforming their structure into organic forms and stripping them of legibility. AI acts not merely as a tool, but as a co-author, whose unpredictability shapes the emergence of lifelike entities, born from the interplay of digital manipulation and organic transformation.

Dächer Mono

Dächer Mono is a monospaced typeface inspired by urban structures. The foundation for both the monospace design and the stylistic set lies in distinctive roof shapes. The result is a typeface full of intriguing visual interruptions that subtly weave into the flow of reading. The typeface includes 468 characters across five weights, ranging from Light to Brutal.

Untitled

The piece presents a text in an unconventional spatial format, where written content is displaced into a rendered abstract 3D environment. Text is distributed across clustered torus forms, prioritizing aesthetics and form over linear reading. Through this spatialisation, legibility is intentionally disrupted, positioning unreadability as a generative condition and treating form, movement, and perception over meaning.

Untitled ASCII

The work investigates experimental typography through a hybrid digital–physical process. Found imagery is reinterpreted using AI, then processed through a custom node-based system in 3D software where images are layered and converted into ASCII characters. The result is refined through image editing, printed, and re-digitized, introducing material distortion and loss. ASCII functions as a typographic structure where image, node networks, and typography converge.

Radial Illumination

In medieval times, illuminated manuscripts were meant to be read in front of a light source. The flame of a candle danced behind the letters and illustrations, giving life to the content. These venerated shapes deserve new life; they deserve the same care as contemporary letters. These majuscule letterforms have been carefully arranged in radial patterns to form new and unconventional symbols. Resembling stars and other celestial bodies, they yearn to dance before the light once again.
