PLAN/T

PLAN/T explores the fertile overlap between planning and planting—between the logic of pattern and the unpredictability of growth. Developed through a one-day workshop on-site at Texas State in San Marcos, this collaborative publication brings together contributions from participants who responded to a shared set of visual prompts derived from structured, line-based materials. Two dozen volunteers were invited to build compositions that blur the line between the organic and the orderly, drawing inspiration from modular design, natural systems, and the quiet intelligence of repetition. Working within time and color constraints, each student created a set of 2-color Risograph prints—each one a unique response to the generative tension between plan and plant, collected in a loose-leaf edition. The resulting work is a colorful garden of composition: vibrant, rhythmic, structured, and surprising.
