NEW MATTER
100 Years in the Skies
2019 marked British Airways’ 100th Birthday. To celebrate the centennial, Bridge Studio commissioned 18 British artists to each design a travel inspired postcard artwork, forming three collectible sets.
These limited edition packs were given away free with The Sunday Times on December 29th, forming a lovely collection depicting the spirit of travel, and 100 years of connecting the world.
Of the 18 involved in the project, three of our own artists designed a postcard, each with their own take on travel and what it means to them.
See the three artworks from Owen Gildersleeve, Tom Abbiss Smith and Toby Triumph below.
