This brief was given to us by two of the third year students and I thought it was an excellent opportunity to learn how to screen print but also create work for outside of university.
Yoke Studio's Leeds.
"The objective is to encourage contributions for a week long, non profit pop up print exhibition and shop that will be held at the Leeds Corn Exchange between March 28th and April 4th 2014.
The theme of the exhibition is 'dialogue' where each creative will submit a design that will be used in a blind collaboration. Contributors must be open to their submissions being manipulated through the use of print and the match making process, that will pair the two submissions together. This will create a series of screen-printed artworks that will be displayed throughout the running of the exhibition."

"Submissions can take any form of the theme. It could reflect directly on past conversations, forms of interaction or it could spread further afield to what you think communication is today."
For my own submission I chose to take the brief quite seriously and make a statement in how we communicate as a whole. I also wanted to portray the idea that our communication now tends to be online through digital formats such as iPhones and computers. People tend to portray themselves differently online than they do in person as a somewhat "other".
I tried screen printing this with another font:
