This allowed me to generate different modular letterforms using grid systems, this has been part of my ongoing research to understand letterforms from the modularity perspective. I wanted to consider different compositions to test out via screen printing, so I created the imagery first via Illustrator to see how they may look.

As well as contributing to this promo poster, I also wanted to create promo posters for myself that will be on display at the show. This is so that it would add context to my project and the prototypes that I wanted to showcase. Images show photos taken from my promo posters Images show photos taken from my promo posters
