15 Week Beans is a collective publishing experiment by the students of Hochschule Rhein-Waal in Kamp-Lintfort. We exhibited student projects which were the result of the 15-week editorial design course, rooted in the theme of time and identity. We presented our books at Between Books exhibition in Kunsthalle Düsseldorf.

I had the opportunity to produce the key visual for our exhibition. The beans stand as a metaphor for creative growth and practice, representing the students themselves and in this case, the main characters of their books. Despite having an underlying topic such as time or identity, all the projects were unique in their own way and could be interpreted in many different ways. I attempted to capture the variety and depth through the use of bold colours and characters.
