DESIGN NAME: Masters of Poland Posters in Nagaoka
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Exhibition Poster
INSPIRATION: I created this poster with respected to Polish poster artist, Wieslaw Walkuski. I selected the poster Caligula he created. He expressed the mental state of the emperor Caligula by painting the emperor with an appearance like a monster. The exhibition poster is the same composition as his poster. However, what I painted is a woman and a rose. I converted the face of a woman into a rose. I acquired a characteristic mysterious image like a Polish poster by the effect of this convert of form.
