Quarry Workers: onlab




"The order and direction of the sheets within the 6 different issues are placed in varied sequences. Therefore, the documentary portraits of the quarry workers are always positionned differently. It creates diverses picture compositions."

"Photographs of quarry workers, published in 6 different editions, assembled in 6 variable configurations and serially numbered."

Sometimes black is all that is needed.

Conspiracy Magazine: Livia Foldes


"This large-format magazine attempts to uncover the visual language of paranoia, employing cheap paper, grainy surveillance shots and palpable outrage."

The use of black tone throughout the magazine adds to the overall appeal. Very interesting use of colour on the front cover and intentional enlarging and cropping of photos to reveal only parts throughout.

More of this monotone stuff, the red being the only colour really brings it out the paper. The positioning of the type looks completely fine even though it is over the image.

Love the use of just two colours and overlapping of the type over the colours and images on these.

Simple method of a portfolio site also, just laying out everything in small thumbnails for everything to see and also clicking for a closer look.

Monotone?


The use of keeping all images the same seems to work well, monotone?, using them in pieces such as booklets etc. seems to keep a nice consistency throughout, rather than the normal multi coloured pictures you would generally get.

Another example of it's use, but using two seperate colours.
