Silent Spring

The Challenge

The MSU Museum contracted me to design an exhibit about the impact of Rachel Carson and Silent Spring.  There was a lot of text but not many artifacts, so I did my best to add images and compartmentalize the text to make it easier to skim.  Because the exhibit would travel, I was required to put all text and images on 4x6’ panels.  I designed backdrops to the panels to connect them and unify the gallery.
