Medium and Role
Project
I chose the word Hope alongside its Hindi translation, Aasha, as a way of anchoring the work in my own experience of navigating between two languages, two cultures, and a particular moment of uncertainty. The pairing became both a typographic challenge and a personal one.
Risograph Print, Experimental Typography Solo project, RMIT 2024
The poster was developed through typographic experimentation, starting with sketches that deconstructed the forms of both words. Using repetition, layering, and risograph textures, I explored how hope could feel fragile yet resilient.
Printed in two contrasting colours, the risograph process added subtle misalignments and grain—echoing the imperfect, human quality of emotion and translation. The result is a tactile, living surface that blurs the boundary between languages while holding space for both.
