« VOCABULARIO » JOCELYN COTTENCIN FEATURING TIAGO GUEDES, 2006-2007

Notion of vocabulary is one of direction of my work. I met Tiago during Just A Walk** project. We wanted to find a "space" to work in commun. I proposed to explore the notion of anthropomorphic typeface. So we began to work on « Vocabulario typepography », but a mooving typeface. I was (I’m) much interested by the abstract form generated by the letter's construction  than the letter itself.
« vocabulario » is a sort of material, now I use to build visuel and graphic projects. One this project, was a settlement I presented during Just A Walk exhibition. It's a line of 10 screen TV, on each tv one action appears, and reveals one letter, so niddle by niddle you see some words appears and deseppears, like in a never ending construction.
