Arctic/Amazon: Networks of Global Indigeneity was an exhibition curated for Toronto Contemporary Art Gallery – The Power Plant. It was born from the networks and knowledge cultivated at a 2019 symposium of the same name. Whitman Emorson was tasked with the design of the exhibition’s layout and identity. The identity design for The Power Plant exhibition had to echo, yet contrast the design of the exhibition’s book. I used type and colour to create a polarity between the cold and warm climates represented in the exhibition.
