Jamie Lawson - SYNÆSTHESIA TEXT PROJECT 13
“All these motions meant parts of time and fate.” From Hamlet’s Mill by Giorgio de Santillana & Hertha Von Dechend
Synæsthesia Text Projects are an ongoing series of text-based posters revolving around Jamie’s experience of grapheme (letter/number) - colour synæsthesia.
Grapheme - colour synæsthesia on Wikipedia
Below is the letter/colour breakdown – each square corresponds with one of the letters in the phrase (for example: A=blue; L=light brown; T=orange; H=dark orange; &c.). In the final art I try to represent the effect that I perceive from the combination of letters, the initial letter of each word having a pronounced sway over the rest.

The Great Work
“The great work must inevitably be obscure, except to the very few, to those who like the author himself are initiated into the mysteries. Communication then is secondary: it is perpetuation which is important. For this only one good reader is necessary.”
Henry Miller
