Harland Miller is celebrated for his investigations into the relationship between text, form and colour. He rose to prominence in the late 1990s with his Penguin series — the book’s fictitious titles were described as ‘wittily deadpan’ by the acclaimed novelist Michael Bracewell — and has continued on an upward trajectory since.

In 2017 he created a new series of paintings inspired by his archive of psychology and science books from the 1960s and ‘70s. The Future, You Might Not Like It Now But You Will features a three-dimensional graphic against a faded background. Like the design, the title can be read in myriad ways. What does it mean to you?
