Graffest

Graffest is an international graffiti festival, the project was the result of a collaboration between the Wyspa Institute of Art located on the former site of the Gdańsk Shipyard and a group of young artists, cultural animators and art curators from the Tricity. Our task was to develop the entire visual setting for the festival.

Graffiti is a subculture that stands in opposition to social norms. We decided to incorporate these characteristics into the event’s identity. We created a visually aggressive sign in which the shapes of the individual letters are blurred and form begins to take precedence over legibility, as is often the case in the work of graffiti artists.
