Mimeographica Alphabetica. This exhibition develops from a project by graphic designer in collaboration with Welling School students
Mimeographica Alphabetica. This exhibition showcases a stencilled alphabet designed with a group of secondary school students and printed using a manual mimeograph machine - alongside materials such as stencil lettering tools and guides. Renowned for his innovative exhibition catalogues and books, graphic designer Fraser Muggeridge (b. 1973) led students to creatively reinvent alphabets and typography. Essential viewing for anyone interested in communicating ideas through graphic design. Reflecting on how typography changes over time according to each method of production within history, the exhibition showcases an abstract alphabet designed and made collectively using stencil duplication. Presented alongside are materials such as stencil lettering tools, manuals, spirit duplicating masters and the two mimeographs (manual low-cost printing machines) used in the process.
