โ€˜This essay takes as its starting point a typographic accident: a โ€œwidowโ€ spotted on the top of a page of Kate Briggsโ€™ book ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜“๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ณ๐˜ต (Fitzcarraldo Editions, 2017). According to the conventions of graphic design, this solitary word should not have been there. But what if this stray word is not a mistake, but a message? What does it tell us about the illegitimate child in the quotation from Madame Bovary, from which it dangles? Reflecting on widows, orphans and hyphens, Rosetta explores the margins of the text and brings to life a shadow world of typography and print. Written and designed as a fragment of a novel, the essay showcases a practice in which graphic design and literary writing shape meaning together.โ€™

Finally sharing our contribution to the April issue of FORUM+

โ€˜Double or nothing. A duet on mothering and artistic researchโ€™. A written duet between a graphic designer and a singer, bending over the shattered efforts to rhyme with a newborn. On fragmented thoughts, halted reading, a failing voice. On how we tried to compose and recompose ourselves postpartum and slowly found our way back into practice, although in an altered shape and shade.

Many thanks to the editors of @forum_forresearchandarts for publishing this work, to Archivio Ketty La Rocca | Michelangelo Vasta for permission to use Con inquietudine (1971) by Ketty La Rocca, and to @celinehurka for generously allowing us to use her typeface Tonka (2023).

The letters in this book were all sent by post, except the first and the last.
Through the graphic design practice of Dear Reader, they tell a story about the materiality of writing, the relationship between form & content, the search for collaboration and the position of the graphic designer.
The letters are arranged chronologically and cover a period of roughly seven years. Reading & designing and writing letters alternated, flowed into each other, and created the desire for a polyphonic novel.

Thank you to everyone that helped me along the way โค๏ธ by @dearreader.be
