Eyes Mini Broadside Print by María José Castillo
A pair of glancing, blinking eyes holds a poem from line to line, read straight across, from left to right.
"Many things can be said through eyes
They might expose moments of vulnerability
In instances a strong will while asserting a claim
They can also sigh of relief when things go their intended way
They might lose focus when the mind is on another place distracted by a deeper thought
At times they might linger on their reflection on a mirror for a little too long
They may have a hard time connecting for fear of showing too much
They may choose to let themselves be closed for a while when the mind tends to other senses and lets them take the reins for just a moment" -María José Castillo

María José Castillo (they/them & she/her) is a graphic designer and visual artist with a body of work that feeds off of their curiosity with language and communication. Their conceptual approach incorporates the analysis of cultural background related to the way we read the written word, not only as a functional element in a discourse, but also as an object existing in a spatial field. María José’s work is heavy on formal exploration of type and shape, with a particular emphasis on how type, layout, and color affect the way a message is read. They also dive deep in a quirky and colorful universe with their illustration work, often accompanied by lettering exploration.
