SORT LATER
2023
Sort Later RISD Senior Show
Design is a form of sorting. The designer takes disparate elements and strings them together; remixed and recombined. Charged with the unending task of forging new connections, the designer tediously aligns type to page, gathers content for books, and compiles assets for websites. Sorting becomes a way to retain control. It implies a tangible end to the process. So often, each design decision leads to some envisioned ‘end.’ Sort Later is about letting go of ideas of finality and instead celebrating the work in progress, the liminal, and the unanswered. The exhibition is a celebration of excess, community, and growth.








REVERSE EKPHRASIS

RISD degree project
Sheet fed Printing by Nate Krohn at the RISD typeshop
In works of art and literature, there can be a tendency to rely on a traditional narrative arc structure revolving around a central climax or conflict. While we can’t ignore the chronological construction of a story arc, there are issues that can be better understood using alternative narrative structure. Reverse Ephrasis, looks to visualize alternative narrative structures found in mediums of expression ranging from semi-autobiographical fiction writing to cinema. Ekphrasis represents literaries ability to respond to and translate works of art into other mediums. Equally valuable is art’s ability to draw reference from the multitude of alternative narrative strategies found in film and writing.
Writing including forms such as fiction writing, journaling, satire, investigative reporting, autobiography, and poetry along with all the amazing narrative structures and forms found in film and cinema all can offer examples of alternative narrative structures that can inform the presentation of information in design, a with creating compelling visual structures and forms that can stand.
