Emmanuelle Ly: DSC

I chose this title because our society is full of acronyms, abbreviations, and initialisms. The acronym DSC comes from my actual ongoing series. I formed it by combining the initial letters of Daily Sketch Crossing. I like the semantic field around these mere three letters. And it can be interpreted in different ways. I love the polysemy of DSC.

There is a good video from the french artist Anne-James Chaton about acronyms nowadays:

It explains well this abundance of acronyms, and at the same time the capacity of a sign to have several meanings. I’m paddling down an endless river of artistic inspiration, illustrating a raw portrait of our society through iconography and typography.
