Re-package for Graphics








For this project we were given a topic, mine was 'Shorelines', to research and re-package somehow.
my initial thoughts with shorelines was of the coast, i never thought of abroad, always Britain, and traditional British seaside towns. I wondered what was typical of the seaside and postcards came to mind. I thought about how personal it feels recieving a postcard, and that someone has taken time to send it to you. I then thought about the kind of person i am, and what i'd like to recieve from someone. As our re-package had to be 16 pages i thought of some kind of puzzle, where the pieces are recieved individualy but you are given clues as to how they fit together.
i kept the rectangle shape of the postcards, but made each page as a cell, with a piece of the whole image on it, so when they're stacked in order (with the number on the back) it forms a whole image of a seaside town.
each sell is sent in its own envelope, all addressed to myself.
i called the project Wish You Were Here.
