Five Prints
conceived and printed in phosphorescent ink as editions of 13 by S/F (Auckland, New Zealand).
Five Prints by RP, are printed as editions of 13 in phosphorescent ink. Word sequences are set in the typeface Boymans designed in 2003 as part of the identity developed by Mevis & Van Deursen for the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The typeface is loosely based on Lance Wyman’s multi-layered identity design for the 1968 Mexico City Olympics. In Wymans font, the repeated outlines of the individual characters referred to motifs in Mexican folk art, transformed and used for the Boymans typeface they are a metaphor for the museums new wrap-around building and the curatorial structures expressed by this architecture. Designed by RP in ten weights, each font consists of three versions: single, double and triple lines. When combined, layered or coloured the typeface generates endless variations.
Split/Fountain is a project space, publishing venture and bookshop founded by Narrow Gauge and Michael Lett. S/F is open Friday and Saturday from 12–5 pm or by appointment.
