As an each year’s festival is dedicated to a different issue, and the formats of the various approaches to it can be different each time, designer faced with the challenge of creating the visual language, a flexible brand system that will be easily transformed and used in a new way every year.
The solution is to create a system of graphic elements, similar to the interface of programs, in which modern media artists work. This system of elements has become a constant of the brand identity of the festival, while the content on the background — can be changed every year, adapting to the actual issue of the festival.
Year 2018 issue: The Future Is Here
This is a sight into the virtual future of art through the interface, the space for experimentation, research and invention, where everyone is able to create his own out-of-plane interactive world of art. In this space, new shapes of art move from the future directly to meet the spectator.
The concept was created as a graduation project for the British Higher School of Art and Design, Visual Communications course 16/18.
