A Partnership for Uncertain Times is an exhibition by ANAT that explores how four artists work across disciplines—blending art, science, and technology—to respond to our increasingly complex and uncertain world.
Rather than showcasing final outcomes, this non-traditional exhibition focuses on artistic process. The brief was to create a typographic wordmark that captures the project's central tensions: unease, complexity, conjecture, and wonder.
The final design reflects typography in a state of flux. We reinforced this concept through a fluid animation that mimics the movement of water—unstable, shifting, and immersive.
The printed publication balances type-heavy essays with image-driven artist spreads, built on a flexible but structured grid system. Each artist’s name features subtle typographic warping, echoing the exhibition’s conceptual theme. We also followed the State Government’s Accessibility Guidelines where possible, to ensure the work remained inclusive and legible.

Early concepts explored the idea of digital glitches—misaligned pixels as well as screen lagging.
Titles received similar treatment to reinforce the concept.
