The last few weeks as a corporate cog have been a bit of a challenge, one way or another. Two phrases come to my mind, one from my British heritage in the form of the classic 1959 Boulting Brother’s comedic film, I’m Alright Jack, and the other from the more well known Kubrick adaptation of the Stephen King novel, The Shining.
It was a close run thing and although the latter inspired me to create the following artwork, I now feel more in tune with the sentiment of the earlier film’s title…
What you have made is similar to Concrete Poetry, where typography and visual layout are the main ingredients. There are whole books about the subject.

The best resource I’ve seen is An Anthology of Concrete Poetry, edited by Emmett Williams. Long out of print, but your library might have it. Or do a ‘net search for images from the book.
