TYPE CAMP GALIANO 07
Marian Bantjes is a self-described Typographic Artist. After working as a book typesetter for ten years and a designer for nine, she gave everything up in 2003 to pursue her artistic and typographic obsessions. Her work is complex, structured, sometimes funny and always obsessive. Despite living and working from a small island near Vancouver, Canada, in the past two years she has worked with Stefan Sagmeister, Michael Bierut, Saks Fifth Avenue, Young & Rubicam, The Guardian (UK), Wallpaper, WIRED, New York Times Books, Print (“The vivid word” cover from July/Aug 06), and her work has appeared in magazines such as Eye, STEP and Communication Arts. She has been an author on the design weblog Speak Up since 2004, where she writes posts which vary from quirky musings to profane rants. The verdict is not yet in, but she may be living proof of what happens when you follow the love instead of the money.
