I developed visual identity and associated design materials for Alien Nations, a group exhibition at Lehman College Art Gallery, on view in 2017. The exhibition featured works by 18 artists exploring themes of alienation. It was curated by Bartholomew F. Bland, Executive Director of Lehman College Art Gallery, and Yuneikys Villalonga, Chief Curator of Coral Gables Museum.

Scope of Work

  • Development of the exhibition's visual identity.
  • Design of exhibition catalogue (print and digital).
  • Design of exhibition poster.
  • Supporting design work for branding and presentation needs in media and print.
  • Image preparation for print and digital use.

Visual Identity

A visual identity was developed for the exhibition and applied consistently across all associated materials. This established the typographic language, layout structure, and graphic approach used throughout the deliverables produced.
