My mother grew up in Colombia and we were all ecstatic when it was announced the wedding would be held there. The visual language emerged from the rich history of Cartagena and the lush botanicals so readily available there and became rooted in a series of flourishes that come together to create a monogram. I also designed a booklet to guide guests through the weekend’s events, which I produced myself using a risograph printer. <img width="2500" height="1668" width_o="2500" height_o="1668"

Jan 2023 14:49:01 +0000 Alex Lahr https://alexlahr.co/Grafting-Orchard-Heritage Grafting Orchard Heritage &nbsp;Publication &amp; Research A5, 295 pages, spiral boundThis work was completed as part of my Masters thesis at Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London. Grafting orchard heritage investigates the heritage politics of English orchards through a methodology of grafting. The project argues that the grafting serves as a viable way of celebrating the hybridity of heritage and historical narratives in such a way that the its local parts are not subsumed into a nationalist whole. This book, organised according to a calendar of orchard tasks, functions as an annotated archive, using primary research in the form of dynamic endnotes to literally comment on the narratives put forth in larger media portrayals of orchards and heritage (loss). The endnotes disrupt the flow of the archival material introduced throughout the book, grafting them back onto local contexts. The hope is that they provide new ways of experiencing the text that precedes them, offering lines of flight from deterministic historical narratives. Instead, these endnotes embrace multiplicity and offer alternatives to single readings of heritage discourse and its impacts on ecologies, communities, history and their politics. <img width="5168"

https://alexlahr.co/Victims-to-Pomona Wed, 11 Jan 2023 08:42:31 +0000 Alex Lahr https://alexlahr.co/Victims-to-Pomona Victims to Pomona &nbsp;Website This work was completed as part of my Masters thesis at Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London. Victims to Pomona suggests that mistletoe and its favourite host, domesticated apple trees, are united through a groundlessness found in roots that are not their own. Apples and mistletoe share botanical, cultural, economic and ecological resources—through myriad vectors, they produce each other. Using two AIs, one trained on a corpus of horticultural texts and the other on accounts of botanical magic and unruly ecologies, this project challenges the presupposed hierarchy between sub/main text and host/parasite. It dwells in between designations—old, new and ongoing—and channels parasitism as a generative force, not a destructive one, to examine how apples and mistletoe discursively conjure each other into being. https://alexlahr.co/Studholme Tue, 31 Mar 2020 14:40:14 +0000 Alex Lahr https://alexlahr.co/Studholme Studholme &nbsp;Typeface One of the winners of the Society of Typographic Art’s annual STA 100 competition, “which honors the 100 best examples of typographic excellence produced aroung the globe each year.” Studholme was created in early 2020 to bring the old and the new together. It’s is inspired by classical roman typefaces but draws on Old English and Germanic forms to create simultaneously straightforward and over-the-top glyphs with a slew of alternate figures and ligatures. It’s something new and something storied all the same and the vast array of contextual alternates and discretionary ligatures allows for&nbsp; a high degree of flexibility depending on different applications. <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b8f1146937e9f42750485cad93980b47de0ad5df90f2abccdcb490ae15d49abb/studholme.jpg" data-mid="65201970" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b8f1146937e9f42750485cad93980b47de0ad5df90f2abccdcb490ae15d49abb/studholme.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a4e754f430f69095895180697ab2e46fc57c65103fdceef62101cdd712eadbef/studholme4.jpg" data-mid="65201974" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a4e754f430f69095895180697ab2e46fc57c65103fdceef62101cdd712eadbef/studholme4.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7a4790bdc3b0b745e0731db1eb39316a14cd93dc2110ce1baec4d2fa93efa831/studholme5.jpg" data-mid="65201976" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7a4790bdc3b0b745e0731db1eb39316a14cd93dc2110ce1baec4d2fa93efa831/studholme5.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4790f72d804902355035dc424aad8db20ffd216cf7493387168a6c7eab781ea8/studholme6.jpg" data-mid="65201981" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4790f72d804902355035dc424aad8db20ffd216cf7493387168a6c7eab781ea8/studholme6.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/01b323cf7e90121a692093f0abca476e1cfde41cc195aa4b88f8277e4e9f6bd5/studholme7.jpg" data-mid="65201984" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/01b323cf7e90121a692093f0abca476e1cfde41cc195aa4b88f8277e4e9f6bd5/studholme7.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6c77227851e2a4dabaaf1ced35ffdb82be039c30d3fca6e5232569fcf31e64ab/studholme10.jpg" data-mid="65201988" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6c77227851e2a4dabaaf1ced35ffdb82be039c30d3fca6e5232569fcf31e64ab/studholme10.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4ce153b50965982f1df398e1799dd0f4e3bbc51bd5b93ecdf060e56823818962/studholme11.jpg" data-mid="65201992" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4ce153b50965982f1df398e1799dd0f4e3bbc51bd5b93ecdf060e56823818962/studholme11.jpg" /><img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cbcdf88f097f7b24d215f735d4171bf547bd99fe430407b041b69d8eeecc6f08/studholme12.jpg" data-mid="65201995" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cbcdf88f097f7b24d215f735d4171bf547bd99fe430407b041b69d8eeecc6f08/studholme12.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/af6a0b8a37cb51f7d34f50f3de39b1b92bb4a7ebf68825bf4ed676a12ce86dcf/studholme13.jpg" data-mid="65201996" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/af6a0b8a37cb51f7d34f50f3de39b1b92bb4a7ebf68825bf4ed676a12ce86dcf/studholme13.jpg" /> <img width="3333" height="2500" width_o="3333" height_o="2500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0f1bed8497521d7a23f46e3852d19222e998e1e85ef69df2f744f8b14491d96d/studholme14.jpg" data-mid="65202000" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0f1bed8497521d7a23f46e3852d19222e998e1e85ef69df2f744f8b14491d96d/studholme14.jpg" /> Available soon. https://alexlahr.co/A-weakness-for-colored-tissue Wed, 11 Jan 2023 08:46:15 +0000 Alex Lahr https://alexlahr.co/A-weakness-for-colored-tissue A weakness for colored tissue &nbsp;Publication A4, 76 pages <img width="2592" height="1728" width_o="2592" height_o="1728" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ea0afc5dee5f903546c654a84dc388ed5b923819343c67712dbfb2c6319942da/AWFCT_COVERS.jpg" data-mid="164323880" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ea0afc5dee5f903546c654a84dc388ed5b923819343c67712dbfb2c6319942da/AWFCT_COVERS.jpg" /> A weakness for colored tissue a book report about “The Street of Crocodiles” by Bruno Schulz, a Polish Jewish writer, artist and teacher who lived and dreamed in Drohobycz (present day Ukraine). Schulz, often likened to Kafka because of his fantastical interpretations of day-to-day life, published “The Street of Crocodiles” (the original Polish translating to “Cinnamon Shops) in 1934. The Street of Crocodiles is not a literary work that has few critiques, so this project’s goal is to orbit around two key thoughts. First, the role of language in making sense of the world, however difficult such a task may be. Second, and in line with the first point of investigation, I explore the matter (in all the meanings of the word) at the heart of much of The Street of Crocodiles, namely the life hiding behind the disguise of lifelessness—how Schulz’s writing extends the right of agency to non-human actants, from non-human animals to human hybrids to that banal refuse—tandeta—we like to call garbage.&nbsp; “A weakness for colored tissue” thus concerns the micropolitics of language, trash and trash-language and the political resistance possible through certain types of non-ordinary writing. <img

Signals—Identity is the crisis (CS4). Published by Chicago and Berlin-based Other Forms, CS4 “assembles texts and images to query the claims and break the chains of “visual identity” in capitalism. What is an identity and what can we do about it?” Soul Branding explores the ways in which contemporary branding practices discursively add value to corporations via “co-creation,” ultimately hailing individuals as assets in brand construction that effectively redefines who and what are being branded as such.

Essentially, however, it serves as a spatial and technical fix to the ecological limits of anthropogenic modes of production. Composed of infrastructures and environmental policies, sustainable closed-systems demand constant expansion to sustain the production of accumulation. They enclose available resources and previously marginalized ecological bodies and continuously direct them towards agents that serve the system by extending its reach. Those who fail to adapt are eliminated, culminating in novel socio-ecological regimes and spatial conditions that amplify the inherent contradiction between modes of production and ecological bodies. This research project follows wetness control systems in Westland, the Netherlands that grow across, above and deep below the surface to efficiently and sustainably make wetness productive. The project locates greenhouse horticulture in the centre of its diagram and extends it to the soilless growing technique, hydroponics, historic land reclamation and its legacy, the canal system, the national transition to geothermal energy, and environmental policies which form a network that designs the contemporary relationship between humans and wetness in the Netherlands. Guided by interviews and field work, this research reveals the extractive logics that shape closed-systems, exposes the politics of sustainable solutions, and follows the watery rebels of wetness towards a different mode of sustainability.&nbsp; ”-Aslı Uludağ <img width="2501" height="2501" width_o="2501" height_o="2501" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/51cb3e861ffafdaf89ac498d7df3f62319d30669a3ca20635fe267f8e01ba755/print-collateral-11.jpg" data-mid="50796162" border="0" data-scale="33" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/51cb3e861ffafdaf89ac498d7df3f62319d30669a3ca20635fe267f8e01ba755/print-collateral-11.jpg" /> https://alexlahr.co/Roadrunner-Manifesto Thu, 02 Jan 2020 12:47:52 +0000 Alex Lahr https://alexlahr.co/Roadrunner-Manifesto Roadrunner Manifesto &nbsp;Print A series of broadsides exploring the colonial logic of wildlife extermination in the United States through the attempted erradicationof coyote populations.

Sarah and Vickie decided to rebrand their business after realizing the need to tell a more compelling story that spoke to their close relationship with both the Earth and the wellbeing of their customers. After exploring several directions, an appeal to Greek mythology began to crystallize. Using nymphs and their intimate relationship with nature as a starting point, an illustration of a woman pensively gazing into a pool of water was created and used as the launching point for the rest of the brand.<img width="5701" height="3901" width_o="5701" height_o="3901" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/81945d37074eeb3918ef362860d9732455bafd962de064b643673b8aead41529/PA-extensions_V2-11.jpg" data-mid="46123163" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/81945d37074eeb3918ef362860d9732455bafd962de064b643673b8aead41529/PA-extensions_V2-11.jpg" /><img width="5701" height="3901" width_o="5701" height_o="3901" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/16097052fadf4c08b53c0990698010f583ac0c8b7e03532bd6aef63a71e11cd5/PA-extensions_V2-16.jpg" data-mid="46123164" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/16097052fadf4c08b53c0990698010f583ac0c8b7e03532bd6aef63a71e11cd5/PA-extensions_V2-16.jpg" /><img width="900" height="895" width_o="900" height_o="895" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fa5e12ab2afd56b7a1ca84141eaeafadb2b8be916736423e97013073a7ba1ca0/dandy-6_v2.gif" data-mid="45703966" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/900/i/fa5e12ab2afd56b7a1ca84141eaeafadb2b8be916736423e97013073a7ba1ca0/dandy-6_v2.gif" /> <img width="3060" height="2685" width_o="3060" height_o="2685" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6a3a33486662db314bd681ac2f4117b6ff828e370d28a23abbb1c4fcf3a5f6ea/Magazine-0127-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425963" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6a3a33486662db314bd681ac2f4117b6ff828e370d28a23abbb1c4fcf3a5f6ea/Magazine-0127-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="2615" height="2111" width_o="2615" height_o="2111" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d43f4ed08fda953a8154b900d0d639b549f20c8a3aa1995c353061e5368046ff/Magazine-0006-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425957" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d43f4ed08fda953a8154b900d0d639b549f20c8a3aa1995c353061e5368046ff/Magazine-0006-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="2615" height="2111" width_o="2615" height_o="2111" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f6fe9b1123191d96860641aafc61b7430e3b491e101f1f4411899ab986de0313/Magazine-0006-3-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425960" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f6fe9b1123191d96860641aafc61b7430e3b491e101f1f4411899ab986de0313/Magazine-0006-3-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="2615" height="2111" width_o="2615" height_o="2111" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3ebf4e8a41954cebff3bc3406bd208bf7062d1194a350066cd4a6aaa0feaa9a9/Magazine-0006-1-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425958" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3ebf4e8a41954cebff3bc3406bd208bf7062d1194a350066cd4a6aaa0feaa9a9/Magazine-0006-1-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="2615" height="2111" width_o="2615" height_o="2111" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1ab20db36d9efc37b0425b957b33b1c0c7d7cbad4b0ea59b0ea4ca608e5763e5/Magazine-0006-5-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425962" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1ab20db36d9efc37b0425b957b33b1c0c7d7cbad4b0ea59b0ea4ca608e5763e5/Magazine-0006-5-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="2615" height="2111" width_o="2615" height_o="2111" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c78ad5b66b925522bbee732facc38f5c551338576736bb9dcbf7b57e83e75ebb/Magazine-0006-4-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425961" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c78ad5b66b925522bbee732facc38f5c551338576736bb9dcbf7b57e83e75ebb/Magazine-0006-4-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="2615" height="2111" width_o="2615" height_o="2111" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7c7f62ddea48fdd7fd56b31d8136e3bc31fa7f6b599182d3142989b783427406/Magazine-0006-2-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425959" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7c7f62ddea48fdd7fd56b31d8136e3bc31fa7f6b599182d3142989b783427406/Magazine-0006-2-2019-07-11.jpeg" /><img width="3060" height="2685" width_o="3060" height_o="2685" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/774cc589cfffd86f41ffeea24267519018b665f89c2b142c053039d43729e990/Magazine-0127-2-2019-07-11.jpeg" data-mid="46425964" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/774cc589cfffd86f41ffeea24267519018b665f89c2b142c053039d43729e990/Magazine-0127-2-2019-07-11.jpeg" /> The business cards feature a simple one color print on their fronts and were intentionally left blank on their backs.
