Project "Changing Shapes“ is a user generated research and an attempt to document and visualise our changing forms of identities in an online vs. offline setting.
As the concept of identity is hard
to grasp I developed shapes as "representations" of our identities.
As visual elements they are also used throughout the project & campaign and
act as an identity itself.
The submissions of the research are collected over a period of two months and the results will continuously be released
in form of a generated print publication.
The first volume has been published.

I believe there is an urgency to talk about growing up and shaping our identities in a digital world. Paul Soulellis defines this as a delayed urgency: the constant and never-ending urgency of doing the work to find out who we are. A practice that begins right now, and stretches way out into the future, a way to work together thats at once slow and urgent in the face of immediate crisis.
