This is a project for Glasgow School of Art's sustainability seminar and campaign. Members of the Visual Communications department were asked to produce a poster based on an art school specific recycling topic to deploy at GSA's launch of its new sustainability program.
This concept deals with the issue of the large amount of paper wasted at the art school from offcuts that are simply thrown away. The paper seen to the right has been collected from various departments around the art school, sliced carefully into 1 inch wide strips and then "perfect bound" using glue so that the back side of the poster was fixed and the front face free to move to the touch. the hand cut and flat bed printed type indicates the volume of paper consumed.
