This beautiful book presents a colourful collection of observations on visual culture and design, written and illuminated by world-renowned typographic illustrator Marian Bantjes – at once quirky, poignant, astute and funny.
Whether intricately hand-drawn or using precise computer illustration software, her highly ornamental, craftsman-like word-pictures have earned her professional acclaim and a cult following around the world.
Every illustration is new, created for the book, and the content combines graphic art with Marian Bantjes' contemplative but frequently amused observations of the world.
Marian Bantjes started working as a book typesetter in Canada in the mid-1980s, later establishing her own successful firm. She began to develop her inimitable style of typography in 2003.
