1969: Stormé De Larverie

Drawing inspiration from historic protest art and designers such as Paula Scher, this publication is a bold typographic celebration of Stonewall veteran, Stormé De Larverie. Loud, irregular typographic spreads which demand your attention act as the vehicle for Stormé’s story. From the illegitimacy of her birth to an interracial couple in the deep south, to the boundaries she continually pushed to pave the way for LGBTQ+ rights- this book pays tribute to the life of a woman who is otherwise known anonymously as “The Stonewall Lesbian”, having thrown the first punch at the Stonewall riots.
