Rusty Odyssey
Printed Publication Design, 2019
A Bachelor thesis “Rusty Odyssey: the colonial trajectory of copper across the Atlantic” by an artist-researcher/designer Yeon Sung visually demonstrates in both a publication, and website. Two different media communicate interactively each other, and provoke the viewer to unfold the colonial trajectory of copper following their original visual language.
The publication shows the structure of research text (five processess of copper: Mining, Smelting, Refining, Casting, and Slag) with the trasformation of copper objects in the foam of diverse graphic elements. It also excecutes the interrelation with the web-interaction by adjusting the different directions of reading, and formats.
