Limited Editions about the Body (2018)
Our group was asked to make a collection of fifteen experimental editions. We chose to work on “the Body” and to try to express it by as many ways as we could find. For example, we worked on different parts of it: the breath, the neck, the blood, etc. But also, on how we talked about it: scientifically, with text, clothes, a language, etc.

Before starting to work on the collection, we designed the visual identity of our collective named Bourrasque. We showed how we perceive Editorial Design and our work with a logotype made with a painted block of wood printed on each edition differently. Then, we wanted our collection, called Corpus (as “corps” means “body” in French, and “corpus” means “collection”), to have an identity, so we chose to have diverse obligations: work in black and white (and one colour if wanted), try as many processes as possible, make different formats and be poetic. Being a group of three, we created some productions on our own and some collectively. This resulted in an eclectic collection, which perfectly reflects each person in the group whilst constituting a harmonious and coherent whole.
