CHAR McKAY
PERSONALLY WORKING AS A CREATIVE PARTNER WITH THE CLIENT TO DESIGN CONSCIOUSLY CRAFTED MATERIALS.
2024  

Bristol-based designer, who enjoys producing printed materials in the form of publications, prints and posters. I enjoy working through tactile processes, incorporating crafts and printing techniques into contemporary work. 
    Through a keen eye for detail, I enjoy curating content and look forward to working on exhibitions to showcase art & design, with previous collaborations with the London-based Travel Things museum, and work featured at the London Design Festival 2023/24.
    I studied for a Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design at the University of The West of England, with a Distinction Foundation Degree in Art & Design at Oxford Brookes University, where I developed my craft for Letterpress, Silkscreen and Riso Printing, which I love to intergrate into my work.

Riso-printed
This poster was produced through photocopying a series of stills from a video on a xerox printer. Each image is scanned once more than the last creating an effect where the resolution decreases until the image blacks out. The purpose of this was to experiment with production techniques, as well as the final series of images illustrating how trends come in and out of fashion through revivals.
