Ships in a Crate
Beginning with the written word, the foundation of our knowledge, we are pushed to reflect not only upon the meaning but also on the signifier, that’s to say the “sign”, on the form, on its perception, its evolution and if it “goes above and beyond’’. An exercise which can begin with an apparently simple question: what will happen if the ‘atoms’ of writing, that’s to say the characters and the glyphs (the so called ‘types’) and their ‘molecules’ and their ‘composition’ which is to say the words, the phrases and the texts which give meaning to our lives, come alive and start to integrate between themselves, meeting, blending and getting stuck without continuity solutions? What happens if they are pushed by an unstoppable generating force preceded by uniting, mixing and blending? If, pulled by a palingenetic force, they couldn’t find anything better to do than mix, bind and congregate themselves? If moved by mysterious forces, if they inevitably merged, evolved and took shape? What would happen? Are we standing in front of an arid, entropic type of chaos without meaning or can we start to speak a new language, to express ourselves again, to interact again? Typomachia project was born from these assumptions, a sort of arena where we can measure the strength of the meaning and how it evolves in a Darwinian sense of the term. Where, contrary to popular belief, it’s not the strongest who survive but those who can adapt. With these dynamics, Typomachia also adds a third dimension, and it does it in the only possible way for two dimensional entities: honorary citizens of Flatland, subjects who can only interact with three dimensional space through the superposition of two dimensional planes thus bypassing their flatness and speaking amongst themselves with a new prospect of depth to which they look in search of new identity. Much like the intention of Plexiglas; an intense, pure stereoscopic expedient, a precious element which opens the world to the privilege of spatiality.
