For this collective exhibition, 19 designers were given an open brief to explore language's difficult, tongue-tripping, unpronounceable labyrinths typographically and in their own language. These works took on variety of forms: from letterpress and silkscreen prints, to light-based artworks and sculptures.

R2 took on a more sculptoric approach, by choosing a Portuguese tongue twister and printing its letters in 3D. Made in resin, these letters create a three-dimensional effect that varies according to the observer’s perspective. See project

Text/ Gallery curates projects inspired by the printed and written word. The gallery is interested in the space between text and the visual arts: using typography, languages, libraries and archives as a catalyst for creative practice.
