The National Grid is a graphic design journal based in Aotearoa. Having started publishing in 2006 with the editorship of Jonty Valentine and Luke Wood, The National Grid became recognised for its dedication to graphic design research, practices, and features from local and international practitioners and theorists, having a unique, expansive view of graphic design that embraced its social and cultural impact as a whole.
After the project came to a halt in 2012, Luke Wood, Matthew Galloway, and Katie Kerr have now revived the journal for 2025, with issue 9 set to launch on Monday. Not quite a ‘magazine’ and not quite an ‘academic journal’, The National Grid seeks to walk the line between professional practice and academia, and art and design, with its 9th issue taking on the current climate of design education, looking back to Pasifika publishing histories, and sketching out diagrams for possible futures.
Sofia had a kōrero with co-editor and co-founder, Luke Wood, about its beginnings and where The National Grid is now.
Timothy Webby is a Tāmaki-based multidisciplinary artist, primarily working within photography. Within the current exhibition Chemistry at Coastal Signs, Webby presents works alongside artist Emma Mcintyre. In which webby showcases a body of Silver Gelatian prints, capturing these intimate moments that offer a glimpse into a kind of beauty.
Webby utilizes a method of hand colouring the silver gelatin prints, creating this uniquely beautiful image that pulls the image both back into itself as well as away from itself and into a painterly-like abstraction. Inserting sweeping movements of colour and texture into the captured image. Offering moments of connection between webby and Mcintyre respective practices. Moments of linkage, response, and chemistry.
Maya caught up Timothy Webby about the show, and overall practice.
