G R G is a duo of freelance graphic designers. This duo is composed of Anaïs Vranesic and Martin Deknudt. Together, he-she co-founded the Graphic Research Garage "G R G" in August 2019. G R G then joined the association Fructose, which provides them with a workshop in August 2019. G R G claims an active relationship with graphic design, which he sees as a political tool. Well aware of current issues related to new technologies and the environment, he-she militates for the liberation of works of the mind, the sharing of knowledge / know-how and the democratization of creative tools. VRA and DEK take the position of activists and researchers, working with a range of tools rather than a single one. G R G pays particular attention to the tools of graphic design, which it opens and diverts to understand and adapt to its use, thus questioning printing techniques. Commitment is a source of inspiration and action in their work, combining research, hacking and graphic design, he-she alternates between commissioned work and research work by setting up an experimental laboratory.
