Infinite Limits

Multiple Design

          Since Macnab discusses using a principle that manipulates fonts and words to get a new outcome, it seemed very relatable to the complexities of Dolly City. On page 72, Macnab uses three posters that were designed by Luba Lukova to help identify the ideas of her logos. One of the images is a dove using the word “peace” to exemplify the point of this logo. He uses this idea to portray the contradiction of peace and war while using an innocent blue color to emphasize the irony of peace and war. The added handwritten “peace” is used to describe the idea that “if you want peace, prepare for war.” He wanted the image to carry that controversy, to ask disturbing questions, and yet still be hopeful, which is what makes this logo so captivating.

          This helps to visualize multiplicity in the work I am using because of the many references of war in Israel that are inadvertently used. Since this logo is so complex in it’s meaning, it is applicable to the type of work Castel-Bloom is trying to get across. Though many may not see every detail that was meant in this peace symbol, it comes from a common meaning that can in turn be interpreted many different ways, just like Dolly’s mind.
