Selected for
#100archive2024, designed by Rachel Copley McQuillan and Stina Sandström
@bureaubonanza, this project brings together typographic identity, animated film titles, and a specially produced newspaper to support Deirdre O’Mahony’s powerful sound and moving image artwork.
Drawing on the visual language of 1970s and 80s agricultural publishing, the design reinterprets familiar Farmers’ Journal and provincial newspaper aesthetics through a contemporary lens, connecting past communication traditions with today’s urgent environmental questions.
Produced for the Walls & Halls Tour and exhibition at The Douglas Hyde Gallery, the accompanying newspaper — whose cover also served as the tour poster — features farmer interviews, documentation of the Sustainment Experiment feasts, artist correspondence, and the project’s libretto, creating a meaningful bridge between artwork and rural audiences.
Typography referencing plough-line patterns and motion design reflecting the artwork’s polyvocal approach reinforce themes of ecological interconnectedness and shared responsibility. The identity unifies the project across gallery installations and community screenings in barns and halls across Ireland, supporting dialogue between food producers and consumers around sustainability and climate change.
