Emoglyphs

Catalog Design for the Exhibition at the Israel Museum of Jerusalem, Exploring the Connection Between Ancient Hieroglyphs and Smartphone Emojis. For this catalog, we’ve created a design that harmoniously merges the aesthetics of ancient Egypt with a contemporary and innovative approach. Introducing a novel concept of “emoglyphs”, we seamlessly blend the traditional hieroglyphic script with modern emojis.

Rich with photographs, including exquisite blow-ups, which breathe life into archaeological artifacts, this exhibition catalog unveils the foundational principles of hieroglyphic writing, while emphasizing the timeless truth that picture-writing serves, not only as a means of communication, but also as a form of artistic and ideological expression.
