Broken Nature

This project translates the curatorial theme of Broken Nature: Design Takes on Human Survival, an exhibition at MoMA, through expressive typography and atmospheric visuals—fractured letterforms, soft gradients, and organic textures that evoke growth and regeneration. Motion extends these ideas through slow, fluid transitions, allowing the title to break apart and reform, mirroring the exhibition’s message of renewal and ecological connection.

This exhibition explores restorative design—how creative practices can repair broken relationships between humans, nature, and technology. My poster translates this curatorial narrative through a visual language of fragmentation and regeneration. The title Broken Nature becomes both an image and a message: letterforms appear fractured, dissolving into light, then reforming to symbolize healing and connection.

The design contrasts ethereal gradients and organic textures to echo the exhibition’s balance between fragility and renewal. Seaweed-like shapes, coral structures, and particulate dust hint at ecological materials from the featured works—such as Kelly Jazvac’s Plastiglomerates and Julia Lohmann’s Oki Naganode.

The motion teaser extends the poster’s visual language into time. The theme of repair and renewal unfolds through motion: letters of BROKEN NATURE drift apart, then realign as organic textures pulse behind them. Subtle transitions suggest transformation—shifting between fragmentation and cohesion.
