symmetry // asymmetry


Here's the final product for my symmetry letterpress project.























Overall, I'm simply relieved that it's done. Satisfaction level is negligible, although I'm content that I learned something about setting and resetting and printing and printing. My next assignment is to create an instruction manual, the parameters: *no images, *few words as possible, *only two weeks to finish it, *think about the details.

Here is a random list of ideas that I tossed around before discarding for the instructions that I'm going to diddle with for awhile, which I will only disclose when the ink is dry (haha).

How to: be a redneck, fish, get lost, remain humble, garden organically, teach, stay young, avoid settling, get back, find home, fight boldly, make a poem, ride the subway, own a pet, avoid Republicans, get interested, not bore me, spin straw into gold, be a Surrealist, say "fuck off" with as little grace as possible.

Alas, only one can be done...
