To be is to leave a trace—however slight, however fleeting. A fingerprint smudged onto paper, ink bleeding at the edges, or a transient glow on a screen: each mark is an artifact of a moment, tethering us to time, place, and one another. Graphic design, so often entrusted with clarity and endurance, also emerges as a vessel of impermanence, an ever-evolving practice shaped by the tools we use and the communities we reflect. Rather than seeking permanence, our work revels in the transient—echoes of touch and thought suspended between emergence and erasure, dissolving even as they take form. Like postcards to an unknown destination, they serve as invitations to gather around ephemeral spaces—seen, felt, then gone—reminding us that we, too, are only here for now.
