The retrospective exhibition of Eva Kmentová (1928—1980) presented the fundamental artworks of this sculptor. It explored the significance of prints and casts for Kmentová’s artistic statement, reflected on the sense of ephemerality in her works and attempted to understand the position of Eva Kmentová's work in the international context of sculpture. Curated by Tomáš Pospiszyl, with architecture by Dominik Lang.

WE ARE ALL EMOTIONAL

Performance festival We Are All Emotional
visual identity

2022, Prague

“Emotions – be they highs or lows – are coded into the social media platforms on which we spend so much of our lives and which thrive on our emotional engagement, as our own emoticons remind us every day. (…) We react emotionally to what is happening around us, but sometimes it seems as if the ways in which we react make us incapable of dealing with the problems at hand.“ Organized and curated by tranzit.org.

Given the theme, we wanted to create an identity that felt somehow intense and urgent. By using exclamation and question marks in a phosphorescent orange color throughout the communication, the festival's identity became loud, anxious, and a bit passive-aggressive.

Matter of Art

Matter of Art visual identity
2021, ongoing

Matter of Art is a long-term institutional experiment and intervention into the public space. It is a non-profit organization which investigates possibilities for the social and political functions of art in the present day.

We based the identity on a simple system of shapes and charts, aiming for a highly flexible and modular structure that could later be filled with any type of content.

Together with the curators, we decided to make the process behind the show visible through the identity. We asked the students for casual descriptions of what they planned to exhibit and used these textual visions as a central element of the identity. Curated by Nela Klajbanová and Vojtěch Märc. ~diplomkyavu.cz

Fotograf Festival #9: Archeology of Euphoria

The visual identity was inspired by phrases from various unboxing YouTube videos. We wanted to express the main theme of the festival through this specific language, drawing a parallel between the unboxing phenomenon and the experience of huge expectations followed by deep disappointment in Czech society after the transition from totalitarianism to capitalism in 1989. Based on this, we temporarily renamed the festival Unboxing Democracy.

2020 Never Happened

concept and design of a Brno Faculty of Architecture yearbook

While designing a Yearbook we got our hands on an archive of pictures, including many screenshots of Zoom calls, empty studios, etc. In spite of the 2020 pandemic reality, we decided to present a different, dreamy year, full of colorful events and fun experiences. We felt like everybody around us was already so overwhelmed by what was happening that we decided not to include any of the content so typical for that year; lockdowns, zoom calls, keeping safe. We decided to look at the year 2020 at the Faculty of Architecture from a totally utopian point of view and show it as a year that happened in a different universe.
