Project: Sanctum by Theaster Gates

We were delighted and excited to have the opportunity to produce the visual identity, website, signage and print for American artist Theaster Gates' first UK public art project – a 24-hour, 24-day-long event sustained by continuous performance in an intimate temporary structure.

We worked closely with client Situations to create a simple, austere look for the show's collateral, including a single-page scrolling website with an interactive audio waveform that the user can control with his or her mouse.

A number of printed pieces accompany the show including an A6 programme, some beautifully letterpressed handbills to be given out on site and a series of 24 tinted pin badges: one for each hour of the day and available to purchase only during the hour in which you visit.
