“I’m drawn to putting positive messages out into the world, and in the climate we’re living in now, that feels especially important.” -@anthonyburrill At the heart of our 1991 graduate Anthony Burrill’s work is a belief in the power of words, gentle humour and straightforward communication. His works embody positivity and a sense of community. And he is especially inspired by the history of protest and the ways that graphic design has underpinned this. Burrill’s work is represented in the permanent collections of the V&A Museum and the Design Museum in London, and the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum in New York. 🔗 Read our interview with Anthony at the link in the RCA bio.

Using simple letters and powerful messages, Anthony Burrill creates bold graphic works that communicate ideas in a clear and direct way. His minimalist style combines traditional craft techniques with modern media, from posters and murals to installations and skateboards. During this Graphic Matters Summer School masterclass, participants explore typography and language by designing a series of printed posters that encourage reflection, interaction and public dialogue. 🏖 3-DAY MASTERCLASS 📆 19-21 AUGUST 2026 📍 BREDA (NL)

The National Print Museum in Dublin invited me to collaborate on a limited edition letterpress print using wood letter type from the Museum’s collection and printed on a Wharfedale Cylinder Press that dates from the 1850s. This partnership celebrates the power of print as a tool for creativity, communication, and social impact.
