For my graduate thesis project, Footnotes* on Designers’ Perspectives: Climate-Centric Communication Design for Sustainable Fashion Consumption, I created an installation called Footnotes*. The art direction of Footnotes* developed from group discussions that I audio-recorded during two zine-making workshops and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. I used the idea of “footnotes” as a structure to communicate student designers’ & visual artists’ experiences of engaging in sustainable fashion consumption. Although the function of a footnote is to provide additional information and is considered as extra, I repurpose the idea of a “footnote” to be part of the main conversation to communicate the successes and exceptions to their sustainable fashion consumption. Footnotes* reframes the broad messaging about the topic of sustainable fashion consumption. As a large-scale text-based installation (10 × 40 feet), Footnotes* was comprised of typography inkjet-printed on 384 sheets of 100% recycled paper that I wheat-pasted onto gallery walls at Emily Carr University of Art + Design (ECU). I chose the method of wheat-pasting because of its historical uses in commercial advertising and alternative street art, echoed in the taglines and footnotes of multiple perspectives. To create an atmosphere and space for reflection on the relationships between people, natural environment, urban environment, and graphic design, I chose the Knee Gallery at ECU for its window views of the North Shore mountains and in-progress SkyTrain station. I used large-scale typography to create an experience of a “talking wall” that invites viewers to slow down by introducing levels of visuality to express the tone and rhythm of their spoken quotes.
