The consumer
Joseph Binder Award competition poster. The first layer of meaning of the poster is the problem of the modern consumer of goods, in a market oversaturated with supply. On the one hand, the policies of states that ignore the problem contribute to this, and on the other hand, the problem is exacerbated by people who not only ignore and adapt their lives to the conditions of pollution, but also spread litter themselves. The second semantic layer is more critical and reflects the political and social indifference of citizens who ignore, accept and adapt to the decisions of state policies.
Midday Girl
Illustration inspired by the style of Mike Mignola. In Slavic mythology, the Midday Girl is the spirit of a murdered woman bride encountered during the day. Personification of noon as a dangerous time of day for humans in West Slavic mythology. Apparently, the image of noon is ancient and primordial, as evidenced by the wide spread of beliefs and mythological stories about her and their unity in the main features. The origin of the image is associated with the personification of the sunstroke, the special atmosphere of a hot afternoon and the remnants of beliefs in ancient deities and demons.
Drinkus add poster
A promotional poster for a fictional establishment that sells books and wine. A humorous direction was chosen for communication. The cartoon depicts Ernest Hamitgway, Jane Austen and William Shakespeare as the most recognisable literary figures of their time, each holding a glass with a different kind of wine. A humorous phrase also adds to the composition. The name calling of the establishment requires special attention: Dinkus is the symbol (*) used in the typography to separate the chapters. The naming wittily plays with the combination of services offered by the place.
The Auckland Sea Fest
Experimental poster for the event: Auckland Sea Food Festival. The poster depicts a seagull staring intently at the viewer. The aim of the poster was to avoid the obvious images of seafood and to give the overall picture a subtext that doesn't scream at the viewer from the first seconds.
