This project consisted of creating two theatrical poster series for three plays that involve themes related to the tragedy of becoming aware of the truth. The designs were created using Vectr, a vector graphics editor.
Poster designs are tasked with providing insight into the play's content without revealing any truths about the plot. My approach uses minimalism and abstraction to represent imagery present in the plays to emphasize certain thematic interpretations of the work.
The vibrant first series examines how abstracted symbols from each play transform through an anagnorisis, as represented by the use of shadows in the designs. In contrast, the gloomy tones of the second series emphasize how hamartia and hubris contribute to each protagonist's downfall.
