Her works are featured in various publications by Gestalten, Rockport, Rotovision, and BIS publishers.

Just received! Forme 01: Untruth by New North Press

August 9, 2018

Forme is a new letterpress publication, typographically exploring science’s explanations of the world around us by committing ink to paper.

‘Untruth’ is the subject of the first issue which looks at how we navigate a world riddled with misinformation and fake news. A commissioned feature from cognitive neuroscientist Neil Garrett reveals how our brains react to messages we suspect to be false and what motivates us to investigate further, even when we know we’re being lied to.
