This is a redesign project for an exhibition at the Asian Art Museum. I took a different approach and wanted to expand the audience by removing the ink element from the original poster. I have selected a thin vertical form for my poster to carry the Chinese calligraphy layout. The maze is symbolizing the mindset of the audience at this exhibition, who are major non-Chinese readers. To these audiences, reading Chinese is like looking at an image—full of abstraction. Yet, the hidden key is the red highlighted character. It is a Chinese character, 意 yi, meaning meaning, which only Chinese will understand.
