Jonathan Frey

Jonathan's practice and pedagogy rely on understanding the relationships between form, content and context in order to produce visual communications that have a dialog with contemporary culture. He has a deep appreciation for artists and designers who use communication to build connections between individuals and communities, and believes that through the proper methodologies, artists and designers can use their positions as communicators to facilitate positive social change.
