the artist

hooksmith press creates limited edition print runs of posters which are hand-crafted using a combination of traditional wood type and metal type. the work reflects  a slower time and a love of typography and the written word, with inspiration being drawn from 30 +years of appreciating and collecting kiwiana and other ephemera, and the artists own rural, new zealand upbringing.

the story

The type has a futuristic vibe and sits well with the art and designer energy of Walthamstow.’ - hooksmith press
