See Words, ____  An Exhibition of Typographic Work image

Words are carriers of meaning. When words are frozen in time, we have visible language: something that preserves meaning for a potentially wider audience, transcending time and geography.

When words are made visible, they need to take on tangible form. It includes such things as style of lettering, scale, colour, layout, formatting, material, placement, as well as the situational context of the message including time, place, and readers.

What does one do when they see words? Words frozen in time and space often inspire action, if not simply inspire. In other words, causing change in the mind and in behaviour. When words become message can inform, amuse, order, entertain, scare, enlighten, warn, teach, antagonise, or make us warm and fuzzy inside. Words are manifestations of us as social beings.

This exhibition showcases typographic work by 30 creators, where they explore the communicative potential of visible language.

Typeclub Hong Kong

We promote and advance the craft, innovation, efficacy and knowledge of typography in Hong Kong, the Asian Pacific region and beyond.

We are a diverse group of typography practitioners. We work with typography across media and creative practices including graphic design, advertising, type design, publishing, interactive media, signwriting, film and video, education and research.

We organise events such as exhibitions, talks and workshops. We disseminate good practices and resources on typography, and work with other organisations to advance knowledge. Through our work we develop practicing and future designers and advocate for the value of good typography amongst the general public with other industries and streams of thoughts.
