Typography meets architecture in Jason Manley’s intriguing hand drawn prints titled ’Monumental Misunderstandings’.
My current drawing series responds to commercial signage and corporate logos as a means for expressing personal messages of sentiment and political commentary. I specifically reference ornate, fluorescent Hollywood signs and vintage Las Vegas strip billboards, where the context of advertisement is changed to a platform for poetic prose. The text addresses the here and now, and is intended to stimulate awareness to place, breaking the monotony of corporate sameness, and merging the boundaries between personal and public.
