See Nothing volume tre is a digital magazine containing a collection of graphic experiments, visual reflections and interactive proposals in the sphere of non-visibility and seeing nothing, reconstruction and rejection of visual clichés, and the absurdity of confusing the signified and the signifier, in a continual process of reciprocal transformation among traditional and new media.
The concept behind the project is the brainchild of the Jekyll & Hyde graphic design studio, which asked established and up-and-coming graphic designers, illustrators and photographers from Italy and across the globe to present their points of view on the topic.
See Nothing Volume Three contains projects by: Alizarina, Giacomo Bagnara, André Bergamin, Elena Bonanomi, Carnovsky, Pietro Cocco, Fatomale, Francesca Ferrari, jekyll & hyde, Marco Fornasier, Vincenzo Lanziello aka Lovo, Silvio Lorusso, Niccolò Mazzoni, Francesco Meneghini + Francesco Mantovani, Marco Nicotra, Jorge Pomareda, Stefano Rovai, Alessandro Ripane, Giuliana Tammaro, Lucille Tenazas, Ania Wawrzkowicz + Linnea Apelqvist, Jasper White.
