Stephanie Syjuco's "Towards a New Theory of Color Reading"





All the pages (16 total) of the mockup using the "Philippine Guardian" edition

color breakdown:
yellow=text
black=newspaper info,
cyan=photos,
red=advertisements.

From Syjuco's website:

Four-color newspapers printed in edition of 2000 each. Part of the solo exhibition "Stephanie Syjuco: Total Fabrications" at the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, Dec 12, 2008 - Feb. 22, 2009. Curated by Meredith Goldsmith.

El Dia (Spanish-Language), the Houston Forward Times (African-American), and the Manila Headline (Filipino-American). By abstracting the content of each publication, a new visual fomat was created for viewers to attempt to "read." Three bulletin boards served as a way to display all the pages at once.
