First of all i realise that i have misspelt 'religion'.
We had a work shop exploring typography, which involved a long slideshow of different creators and there font, and we discussed our thoughts on it and how it made us feel, it was challenging as it was hard to explain how the type made us feel. All this was to inspire us to go off and create our own type faces, we where given massive folders of all the different types we could be influenced by.
Everyone was doing very neat and tidy typefaces, using rulers and grids. I didn't want to confine mine to a grid or use a ruler so I used a more experimental approach. Using ink and quill and this inspiration from the Typeradio Interview with Ellen Lupton i used the word 'religion' and thought as she talks about how design is her religion i wanted to make the word her brain, as if it ruled her life. Using a gothic font hand rendered repeated within a template of a brain i created this.
