Some great art by Dylan Fareed. This piece is titled We Are So Good Together. It was a featured piece for 20×200. Here’s what Dylan had to say about it:

I first put these words to paper through wood type and letterpress a couple years back, after a breakup. The print was just for myself—a half-hearted joke about the bond between a guy and the paper that hangs on his wall. It hung in my workspace in Brooklyn for some time.

One day, an incidental photograph of my studio with the print barely visible in the background was posted somewhere on the internet. That afternoon, I received an email from a young lady in Finland who wanted desperately to give the print to her fiance. I let her know that I would look for a proof and see what I could do. To my surprise, the emails have kept coming in and I have since produced and sent this print to folks all over the world.

Measuring Type is a comparison of the most commonly used typefaces drawn out with a ball point pen. The comparison determines how economical each font is when written at the same point size.

Large scale renditions of the typefaces were drawn out with ballpoint pens, allowing the remaining ink levels to display the ink efficiency of each typeface.
