Small Gods

  • Liam Morrow
Publication and type design, commissioned by RCA Critical Writing graduate, Alex Quicho. Small Gods explores the use of the drone as medium through the works of three artists: Laura Poitras, Anne Imhof & Korakrit Arunanondchai, addressing its movement through military, civilian, and transhuman realms. The type is based on the concept of the drone, as the remote embodiment of spirit, in an artificial object. A Celtic Uncial lettering style, references medieval religious manuscripts. The letterforms subsequently acquire exaggerated features, to evoke imagery of the drone.
