Well it does seem a little strange for a project called Memories to team up with an artist who goes by the alias Emily Forgot. Right? But that’s what we’re doing and we feel no shame in this because despite her somewhat whimsical monicker Emily is on the money when it comes to contemporary image making. You’ll see her stuff in Computer Arts, Design Week and Creative Review. It’s in the Selfridges front window, on cool magazine covers and in an array of exhibitions. Personally, I love the way she works with forms and different media, knocking things back to a monotone but using light and shade for drama despite the absence of a full spectrum. Ironically, the image above uses more flat tones than anything else but it’s typographic and that’s a direction she wants to explore in coming months.

Anyhow, we are very pleased to have Emily Forgot on board and, leaving the puns aside, we’ll just say don’t forget to visit her portfolio site here as soon as you can. She’ll be working on Gordon Kirk’s story, entitled New Life, about how he survived cancer.
