Seb Lester is the one of the world’s leading calligraphers having designed type for NASA, Apple, The New York Times, Nike and the 2010 Winter Olympics, graphics don’t get bigger than this. Lester’s passion for the Latin alphabet which he claims to be “one of mankind’s most beautiful and profound creations” is infectious, informing all of his striking, limited edition prints. ‘Three Words’ is a profoundly beautiful piece of print work, bringing language and visual art into perfect union. The three words ‘peace’, ‘love’ and ‘hope’ have been crafted from geometric shapes and a nexus of intertwining lines, each letter hand printed in silver ink onto black paper. The interplay of light and dark, shape and type, is bold, compelling, and hypnotic an extraordinary work of contemporary art.
