Colours of Africa website
Colours of Africa is a digital exhibition featuring 60 African artists and was released on Google Arts & Culture, in collaboration with Design Indaba. The project aims to help elevate African culture, design, and creativity. The exhibition showcases artists from different disciplines, from architecture, painting and ceramics to writing, engineering, and the performing arts. The theme of the exhibition is colour. Each artist was invited to select a colour and create an original piece of art to represent their country and express what it means to be African.
The main typeface is Movement, a variable font inspired by dance, created in collaboration with Design Indaba and South African dancer Andile Vellem. It was released at the 2019 conference in Cape Town. This project uses the angular Direct style (Movement Indirect offers curved letter shapes).
