0505, Visceral Typography
Nine digital prints each present a single large letter conjoined with unusual materials: clumps of frog eggs, strands of human hair, and hair nets. Monique Goossens, a graphic artist from the Netherlands, created these meticulously photographed prints. She uses visual imagery to elicit a tactile, visceral response.
