Yoke Dialogue The objective is to encourage contributions for a week long, non profit pop up print exhibition and shop that will be held at the Leeds Corn Exchange between March 28th and April 4th 2014. The theme of the exhibition is ‘dialogue’ where each creative will submit a design that will be used in a blind collaboration. Contributors must be open to their submissions being manipulated through the use of print and the match making process, that will pair the two submissions together. This will create a series of screen-printed artworks that will be displayed throughout the running of the exhibition. Submissions Yoke welcomes creatives from all creative backgrounds to contribute to the exhibition. We’re now ready to start receiving your ideas based around the theme of ‘Dialogue’. Submissions can take any form of the theme. It could reflect directly on past conversations, forms of interaction or it could spread further afield to what you think communication is today.

Design For my submission to Yoke, I decided to design a poster which resembled a main form of digital dialogue in the twenty first century, the mobile phone. I created an image of two hands holding phones which sending data between them creating a dialogue between the digital devises. I created the poster so that it could be either landscape or portrait and could be flipped upside down. Doing this meant that Nathan and Eve were able to print my poster however they wanted.

Exhibition Yoke was a nice short brief which allowed entrants to design a black and white poster under the theme of ‘Dialogue’. These posters were then screen printed by Nathan and Eve with another entrants poster overlaid creating a dialogue between the two layers. I was over the moon to be paired with Two Points, a freelance designer based in Barcelona. I felt like the colours that Eve and Nathan decided to print my poster in really showed off the artwork I had provided. I am glad I submitted to the exhibition and was really happy with how my work was printed and displayed at the exhibition.
