For 2012, SPJ in collaboration with i-view (visual research community of DKV Binus University), invite you to explore the visuality beyond its usual scope as representation. Of course, the power of visual to represent various things has long been the cornerstone of graphic design. But precisely in our era of effortless “digital template library and CTP”, considering graphic design as a mere visual representation may put the existence of design & material quality themselves in great danger. To cut the chase: to merely ‘represent’ something e.g. business with “good visual and fancy printing” can be easily done within the digital process, substituting the long & painstakingly creative and collaborative efforts of excellent individuals, from visual designers, design critiques, material providers and even dedicated printer, making all of them ‘things of the past’.
SPJ and i-view share the same concern for this unfortunate circumstances. Therefore we ask Yasser Rizky to carry out an experimental homage to “visuality” and “materiality of the paper” as a response. The goal is to rediscover the vitality of visual design in its vicinity to materials (paper and ink), by pushing the boundaries of design thinking beyond merely representing things. The result we hope, is shown in this calendar. But we also realize that the issue here is bigger than just all of us who were involved in the project. In fact, what we do here is only a small step.
Therefore, the spirit of unleashing our “daily” design world from the tendency of “representation through templatization” can only be carried on together with you, the true creative people. Let’s make our design world once again comes alive, through the re-union of visuality and materiality, visuality beyond sheer representation.
