letterpress print: rage is tinder / hope is fuel
5.125in x 7in (basically size A7)
Black ink on bright white Flurry cotton paper.
We need both rage & hope to spark & sustain movement work.
Sometimes you need tinder to start something - and sometimes you need fuel that’s gonna burn longer term.
I’ve been iterating on this phrase for many years, and finally feel like I’ve found it’s final form. Typesetting italics is fun (and not actually that hard - you just need triangular wedges of spacing material to make your form rectangular.) And that Agency Gothic Open typeface will forever be a favorite of mine.
