The Shape of Letters in Sign Languages is an exhibition about a multilingual experiment involving Korean, English, and sign language.

Selected for the Seoul Design Foundation’s DDP Open Curating program and hosted by Gallery MUN at DDP (Dongdaemun Design Plaza), the exhibition presented research into sign language as a new typographic element. The exhibits are based on typography methods that use layout, color, proportion, and movement within a set system. We created the visual identity, translating manual gestures into graphic motifs.
