FEMME WAVE

A logo designed for Femme Wave, Calgary’s first feminist arts festival.

Founded in 2015, the festival takes place annually across multiple inner-city venues with a mission to create a safe, positive, and inclusive space for women and non-binary artists. The logo depicts a painterly circle with grunge typography and a subhead reminiscent of a stamp. The knife through a sandwich graphic on event posters symbolizes ending the patriarchal notion that women belong in the kitchen.
