Kenton Thatcher: Sessions
[Book Design + Visual Campaign]
Editorial project centered on the design of Kenton Thatcher’s photobook and its accompanying visual campaign for its exhibition show, developed from an extensive archive of black-and-white portraits. The book brings together English and Portuguese as parallel narrative layers, reflecting the cultural duality present in the work while guiding the reader through a carefully edited sequence of images.
The visual language is intentionally restrained, built around a limited palette of black, white, and blue, allowing typography, rhythm, and image sequencing to take precedence. Through this reduction, the project emphasizes connection, memory, and presence—using editorial structure and graphic consistency to transform a large photographic archive into a cohesive, contemporary narrative.
