Harriet Bowman Site

A portfolio site for artist Harriet Bowman, featuring custom typography and a colour scheme determined by live traffic data.

The artist's work touches on themes of cars and car culture, so this is a central theme of the site. A custom tyre-track font was developed for use on the site as a header logo.

Live traffic data collected from an API is fed into the site where it controls the colour scheme of the site. If traffic is clear on the M32 motorway then the site's main colour is blue. If the traffic is slow the site is orange, and if the traffic is at a standstill the site is red.

Essays and audio works sit alongside galleries of exhibition shows the artist has created.
