New York Pentagram partner Emily Oberman tweaks the iconic ‘Walk Don’t Walk’ street sign so it beams a message that we believe in.
“I was sitting with my team and we were tossing around something like “Don’t Not Walk” as kind of a variation on “Just Do It” and someone said what about “Don’t Don’t Walk”, and it was a little silly and also perfect. Those words, plus the little word ‘Walk’ at the bottom of the poster, feel so powerful - two statements made from four words that are actually only two words say it all.”
WHY?
A study in Sydney found that motorists face a higher rate of emission exposure than people who walk or cycle.
HOW?

Marsha Cottrell (USA)
Brooklyn-based artist Marsha Cottrell creates deft, intricate drawings of stellar landscapes, imaginary worlds floating light years away. ”The first landscape images in art I connected with as a young person were da Vinci’s “deluge” drawings,” she told Review Interview earlier this year. I was attracted to the idea that they were not representations of actual places, but eternal/internal landscapes that might be found anywhere at any moment in time. Their energy, architecture, and intricacy - but not rigidity - always appealed to me. They seemed to present an open platform with which to interact, and I’ve always aspired for my own work operate in a similar way.” Indeed, the works project space and wonder while also maintaing a strange kind of familiarity, the gaps filled in by your own mind.
