Stephanie Specht

 Stephanie Specht (°1982) is an Antwerp-based graphic designer who graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts (Antwerp) in 2004. Having lived and worked pretty much everywhere in her 14-year career (Cape Town, Brussels, Princeton, New York, Antwerp), every single one of these experiences shaped her as a creative person. The integration of intuition in her work has recently become increasingly significant to Specht. The ability to reinvent herself from time to time is of high importance; when the need for change is there she wants to act upon it. Freedom is the most vital element in her life.

This billboard is a collaboration between Design museum Gent and 019. It functions as an alternative exhibition platform for (graphic) designers. A leftover from the Museum Of Moving Practice project that happend between the 18th of May and the 17th of September 2017, where 019 temporary occupied a part of the museum. This billboard is a copy of the Billboard Series framework that has been hanging at 019 since September 2015. (A project by artlead, All Things Contemporary Vzw & 019)

Each billboard stays up for two months.
The designers are selected by 019.
