Metaphors is text and images by Ken Garland. Ken was one of the UK’s internationally respected graphic designers with a strong following of contemporary practitioners and academics. Metaphors features his photographs with accompanying text. The fusion of both text and image creates the ‘metaphor’.
Ken’s work and life spans from professional graphic design, photography, design education, political involvement to writing and more recently, publishing. His initiation of the internationally known design manifesto in 1964, First things First, underlines Ken’s social conscience throughout his life. Ken was an editorial adviser to Baseline magazine.
