Greetings, Neighbor
Greetings, Neighbor is a typographic poster series examining my relationship with my gentrifying neighborhood in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn.
Year
2014
Range of work
Poster series concept & design
Typographic conversation. Using responses from a survey that I created and disseminated locally in the neighborhood and online, the first two posters create a conversation between my neighbors and me. The first displays a long-time resident and me, while the second displays a self-proclaimed gentrifier and me (also a gentrifier, not by choice). The third poster compares my thoughts to those of Spike Lee, with words from his then-recent gentrification rant at Pratt Institute representing his thoughts.
Let's get to know each other.
