Lyttekor, Identity, 2024, Copenhagen

LYTTEKOR is an artistic research project led by Tanja Diers, a PhD student at Lund University and Malmö Theater Academy, aimed at individuals who have experienced fertility treatment. Since 2011, Tanja Diers has contributed to the performing arts as a dramaturg, writer, and stage manager, participating in over 50 performances. Inspired by vibrations, frequencies, light, and Pauline Oliveros’s Deep Listening, I created the artwork and identity for this project.

Kapauhagen, Logotype, 2024, Copenhagen

I have a chat group with some of my friends in Indonesia that studied art together. When my daughter was born one of them wrote I should put "Kapauhagen" in her name mixing the word 'Kapau' (Kapau is a specialty food stands from West Sumatra where the roots of my family came from.) and Copenhagen. He wrote it as a joke, a funny one according to the group standards. I decided to visualise it using cliché and exaggerated characteristics from both cultures.

Lille Ingolf Vuggestue, Identity, 2024, Copenhagen

One of my end-of-year projects is titled 'Daycare Rescue.' Flora's daycare received a letter from the municipality, stating that due to the forecast of fewer births in the upcoming years, they are considering closing 5-10 daycares. Interestingly, the municipality did not include any aspects of quality in the letter, despite the daycare consistently exceeding standards in its yearly reports for the past five years. With the hope of attracting more parents, I have designed the identity and marketing materials for the daycare.

Graphic design graduation show, Identity, 2019, Netherlands

Together, as a team with several graduating graphic design students, guided by Agata Jaworska and Ina Hollman, we designed the identity for our department’s graduation show. In addition to curating the students' projects, I was responsible for creating 50 creatures, each representing a graduation project. We sent questionnaires to each student to categorize and map out the placement of each project, providing me with guidelines for designing the creatures. These creatures were featured as animations in the crowdfunding video, as window stickers, printed on merchandise such as t-shirts and keychains, showcased on the website, and included in the booklet.

Migrare, Documentary film, 2019, Netherlands

Filmed from God’s point of view, Migrare is a documentary featuring three undocumented people from Indonesia living inside the social structures of The Netherlands. This interview based documentary is an attempt to reveal the humanistic side of these migrants, giving the audience insight into what it is like to live without legality, what this means to them and how they see themselves inside the “illegal immigrants” stigma. Filming this movie from above made me able to hide the interviewees identity without using the traditional “pixelated face” or “black square censor” on their faces that are often applied to interview criminals or crime witnesses. it also put the viewer as more as an observer of how these undocumented migrants live in the Netherlands.

Human Library Denmark, Posters and flyers, 2018, Denmark

For the NGO Human Library Organization, I designed the event poster, flyer, and social media poster for the opening of their new Human Library in Odense. Because the Human Library Organization challenges stereotypes and prejudices through dialogue events, and this was their very first event in Odense, Denmark, they provided me with a lot of text explaining their concept, which played a significant role in the composition of my design.

City Displacement Tour, Identity, 2017, Netherlands. Collaborated with Peter van Langen

"City Displacement" is one of the five public programs presented within the "Mentality-No style" project in the context of the 100 Years of the De Stijl/Mondrian year event. Students were selected to undertake a project for the municipality of The Hague. I worked together with my classmate Peter Van Langen on this particular project. Inspired by the mentality of the De Stijl movement and the Agitation Propaganda Tour, we initiated a bus tour event around The Hague. We conducted research to identify signs of gentrification in these neighborhoods and selected six designated spots. On the bus, we invited activists to discuss and share their knowledge about gentrification. For the project, we designed posters, flyers, flags, and social media posts. We visited The Hague image library to gather old and recent images, which we used as visual language to depict transformations in these areas.

Hazyland, Documentary film and photo book, 2020, Netherlands. Collaborated with: Sam Rynearson

Hazyland brings together the voices of fellows and experts around the theme of indorock, a music genre created in the Netherlands in the rock and roll era of the 1950s. The interviews with Woody brunings, Leon Donnars and Harm Peter smilde focus in particular on the creative work of the Tielman brothers, who are seen as the pioneers of indorock. The video critically discusses the use of terminology rooted in ethnicity such as ‘indorock’ questioning whether such naming perpetuates racism.
