Bonavista Biennale 2017 Catalogue

Art encounters on the edge

“An exhibition of contemporary Canadian art on Newfoundland’s east coast, mapping a 100 kilometre loop through historic fishing communities and the rugged coastal landscape.”

We worked closely with curators Catherine Beaudette and Patricia Grattan to document the remarkable site-specific works of the 2017 Bonavista Biennale in print and digital form. We developed a layout grid that let the artwork speak and provided supplementary text in a non-intrusive way.
