UPSIDE-DOWN PERSPECTIVE
From content to form and back


Through a collaboration of A14/Daniela Lorenzi and Cristina Balbiano d'Aramengo, the theme of this new series of workshops proposes bookbinding and original print making techniques as instruments for graphic design project planning and production.
Intentionality, technique, form, content, and language are all elements which equally contribute to the successful design, planning, and creation of a book or a folder.
The workshops provide an opportunity to closely look at the world of small publishing houses and limited edition artists books, and draw inspiration from artists and graphic designers projects, as well as from significant experiences in bookbinding.


THE PROGRAM #03
Between the pages of a book: the possible significance of transparency

Visibility / Invisibility
Uncover / Conceal
Transparency / Saturation
Brightness / Opaqueness
In front / Behind

Perceptually what happens as we imagine to look beyond, to exceed the limit of sight, to blur the boundaries or suggest something that is underneath what we can see...

By looking through, layering, creating multiple levels of vision, playing with transparencies, the aim of this workshop is to explore anew the space within the book and its perception.

Beginning with the choice and type of paper, following the cadence and the progressive development of the pages, through the application of several methods of printing using the etching press, and finally the assemblage using different techniques of bookbinding, together we will explore the possible meanings of transparency, throughout the designing and making of our booklets.

There are no pre-requisites for attending this workshop.
