Gemma Ince

Graphic artist, art director and graphic design tutor. Working across disciplines and media, in print and digital. Incorporating illustration, collage, photography or typography. Work could be a bespoke brand identity or a more abstract thing that needs expressing. I play with words, make books and write as co-founder of Persehouse Press. All the work is aiming for a more beautiful and healthy world.

I have worked as a tutor and lecturer since 2009. I currently work at Birmingham City University 4 days per week – teaching undergraduate designers how to think differently, develop confidence, be invested in coming up with lots of good ideas, to collaborate and mix their media. I encourage the students I work with to develop their unique design approach and an opinion of their own. And have some techniques for that. I also encourage thoughtful design – and for reasons beyond simply spewing things out into the world for cold hard money. i have also been a visiting lecturer at Central saint martins and University of Derby.
