Identity

Thomas Merton was a groundbreaking leader who challenged the hypocrisies of our age and instead offered his meditations on the power of prayer, humility and grace.  With his impeccable literary skills, he wielded far-reaching influence despite, and perhaps because of, his vocation and life as a Trappist monk in remote Kentucky.

I designed an identity piece for the NYC branch of the Thomas Merton Society. The logo mark represents Merton’s ethereal presence on those he impacted. He preached genuine freedom and solitude and was said to have brought light and hope to his followers.
