Clear began working with Melbourne Museum in late 2011 to develop many of the design and communication elements for their current feature exhibition – The Wonders Of Ancient Mesopotamia. Working closely with the Museum design studio and marketing teams, Clear collaborated on the name of the exhibition, conceptualised the logo and title treatment, and developed an extensive advertising schedule for both print and digital media.
In collaboration with the Museum design studio, Clear art directed Sydney-based illustrators We Buy Your Kids, to present multiple executions of the earthy and textured ancient landscape to fit different applications. The integration of the title worked succinctly to bring it to life.
Clear have been devoted to the realisation of the exhibition vision and will be working with Melbourne Museum on the final two phases of the campaign.
The exhibition features over 170 artefacts from the British Museum and will remain open until October, 2012.
