MALWARE: SYMPTOMS OF VIRAL INFECTION 

Art direction for an exhibition showcasing the history of the computer virus at museum Het Nieuwe Instituut, Rotterdam from 4 July till 10 November 2019.

Role: Art Direction

Computer viruses steal, damage and threaten our most sensitive information, files and privacy. Nevertheless in a strange way, the virus also has an exciting, even ‘beautiful’, quality. The exhibition Malware, curated by Bas van de Poel and Marina Otero Verzier, focusses on the most infamous examples. These form the starting point for an exploration of questions of security, warfare and geopolitics in times of rapid technological advance.

Together with Vera van de Seyp we created a series of ‘interactive’ posters to promote the exhibtion.

All the spatial design has been done by Astin le Clercq
