Looking for a way to "explore the use of TYPE as abstract shape." Although I am new to illustrator, I had a great time doing this exercise. I actually did a few different words but settled on "Weeds" because of aesthetic value more than theory. I was intrigued by this particular font because it see
med so organic. With that in mind, I experimented with tools and found one that created leaves, so I went a bit overboard, much like weeds tend to do. I also brought in some lines to frame the word, and attempted to make them feel like a fence, thus creating positeve and negative space. I had fun!
