I’ve been working with the fantastic team at Hybrid Design in San Francisco to create content for Mohawk Paper‘s Maker publication for quite some time now. The writing I did for Issue No. 13 was especially interesting, because it challenged the way I think about the differences between fine art and design, blurring the line between the two.
For the issue, the design team commissioned illustrator Merijn Hos to create an art print — but it wasn’t just one image. Thanks to the way Hos constructed his illustration, a computer program that the Hybrid team used and something called variable-data printing, each edition of the Quarterly contained one unique version of 20,000 total prints. Mind blowing, right? It was kind hard to write about, too.
