SMALL TALK NO. 7: MARIO HUGO
Stories & Soliloquy
Join us for the first ever presentation of New York based designer/artist Mario Hugo.
Mario Hugo spends an inordinate amount of time in front of his computer, though he still feels most honest with a pencil and two or more sheets of paper. When time permits, he loves working on any number of personal projects, illustrations, paintings, and interior products.
Recent commissions and clients include Capitol Records, Warp Records, Dolce & Gabbana, Channel 4, and The Fader. Mario has been featured in magazines and books including Flaunt, Area 2, Grafik, Dazed & Confused, XLR8R, Print, and IdN.
This past year, Mario & Jennifer Sims founded Hugo & Marie, a New York based agency, consultancy, and talent boutique.
Mario would like to spend his Small Talk with stories, secrets, and other such words. He will discuss the nature of design as visual communication, how communication implies dialogue and conversation, and how this emphasizes the importance of vernacular, vocabulary, tone, and inflection in design. In general, it’ll be about maintaining one’s “voice”, focusing less on the immediacy of communication, and more on the intimacy of discussion.
