This is an undated sheet by Tiemen Hooiberg, the dimensions of the artwork are 310 mm in height, 230 mm in width. The work presents an austere typographical layout. At the top, crisp, sans-serif fonts are used to communicate an official statement or announcement. The composition is clearly structured around the hierarchy of the text, which fills the top part of the sheet with two handwritten words at the bottom. The use of typography here serves not just a communicative function, but a visual one too. Its clean lines and geometric forms provide a visual framework. The use of contrasting sizes and weights directs the eye and organizes information. This self-referential approach is a testament to the power of structural arrangement in shaping meaning, inviting us to consider how textual and visual elements interact in a printed document. It's not just about what is said, but how it is presented, that conveys meaning.
