Found some Nat Geo magazines at a @thesocialglueofsydney collage meet and got to work ✂️
The collage on the left is a data visualisation of an article in a July 1997 National Geographic. I cut out and arranged the drop caps and square image cut-outs from the article (the data) in the places they were on their original pages. The background is a large image from this same article. The dots were gifted by @zoesado and signify whether the image cut-outs and drop caps were on the left page of the spread or the right (also data).
The small collage on the right is the masthead from an October 1981 Nat Geo that I deconstructed. I cut out each letter, flipped them over, then put them in reverse alphabetical order. The red dots show the letters that would have been in those places, had the rocket on the cover of this edition (and also in this collage) not flown up over this masthead 🚀
I’ve also included the covers of some of the magazines I found plus a spread from the article I worked with. I’m starting to realise that maybe data vis is another facet of my need to organise everything 🥳
All of the plants in my apartment and how concerned I am about them 🪴😬❤️
I’ve been doing honours this year in design and am basing my entire project on data visualisation, and this is a little experiment I did. I collected data on my plants (and how concerned I am about them) and visualised them all. This was really fun to do, keen to do more of these experiments.
Stay tuned for more! I want to share my work a little more regularly on here.

A woman wearing a brown shirt repots a hardenbergia violacea plant. The repotting process is sped up. The video ends with close ups of the repotted plant.
