Milk: Exhibition Identity 


‘Milk’ explores our relationship with milk and its place in politics, society and culture. It considers how milk has come to be seen as so central to perceptions of nutrition and “good health” in the UK. The choices we make about milk are personal. But it is also a highly politicised liquid that has been used to exert power as well as provide care. I brushed the title design for this campaign with black ink mixed with a few drops of oil, and then reversed it to give the sensation of being drawn with fatty milk.
