I need to improve my design process, specifically by working on balancing both thinking and making.

The feedback and criticism that I consistently get is that I think too much. Sometimes when I mention that to people, they attempt to console me and reassure me that thinking too much isn’t a bad thing.

But in my situation, it isn’t that ideal because the reason I think too much is because I don’t make enough.

This summer though, I wonder how I can improve my design process while being in Japan and Korea?

MISSION ON MINNA

Pablo A. Medina, Nolan Jones and Chris McLean will be exhibiting recent work inspired by themes and aesthetics in and around the Mission district. This will be a one night only show on Wednesday, May 9th from 6-10 pm. Art, food, drinks and Brazilian beats will be in the house.

Pablo A. Medina-

As a visiting artist at CCA, Pablo A. Medina has been documenting the many colorful hand painted signs in and around the Mission District. These signs have been the primary aesthetic influence for a project that he’s developed called “Ruminations,” which are a series of small paintings that use chosen Mission signage as templates for composition, color and lettering styles. As content for the paintings, Pablo pulls from his daily journals, exposing his sometimes painful and other times whimsical emotional processes to the viewer.

Nolan Jones

Nolan Jones is a graphic designer that uses hand-drawn typography to evoke thought provoking dialogue. In the series of works for the exhibit “Mission on Minna,” he explores the themes of gentrification and immigration. He utilizes typography to give a voice to the different ethnicities that have called the Mission District their home, as well as the idea of leaving one’s homeland in search of more opportunity.

Chris McLean

UBC = Uppity Bike Commuters. The inspiration for the UBC was an incident a few years ago when a friend was purposely run off the road by a Fed EX truck. The UBC engages the issues of public space when using bicycling as primary form of transportation.

“We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”

- C.S. Lewis
