It just had to feel right," she said The letter L is formed by two women "The poem itself has to echo the letter, whether it was the shape of it, its underlying story or the action. This matches the letter S, and the rotational symmetry of its curves, formed by a woman's swooping legs on top and a man's kneeling stance on the bottom. The figures are always rendered in the same colours I am an odd geometry of elbows and skin, a lopsided symmetry of sin and virtue".
In the final book, verses from Cisnero's poem Beatrice accompany the letter S, which Favre describes as "one of the naughtiest". The idea of including poetry to complement the letters came to Favre after reading the work of Mexican American writer Sandra Cisneros, which reaffirmed to her that erotica doesn't have to be kitschy or cringey.

A man props up a woman to form the letter E One member of the couple is depicted with bright white skin and red gloves and stockings, while the other is theatrically clad in yellow gold leaf. The figures are offset against an entirely matte black background. "Also, I love giving myself ground rules before breaking out of them." The letter V is intended to showcase a reversed power dynamic between a man and womanįrom there, she playfully moulded bodies together to fit the different letters and illustrate a range of power dynamics and preferences.
"Having consistency throughout the letters was very important to me, so working within the constraints of an existing font made sense from a design standpoint," she continued. "Its visual balance acted as a very strong backbone for my work and left enough space for interpretation without losing the understanding of the letter itself." "I have always been a big fan of this bold and unapologetic font," Favre said. It features clean, geometric shapes, created by German typographer Paul Renner in the 1920s, which made it one of the most widely-used fonts of the century.
