REGGAE | China
加勒比海的阳光
Through the hair elements of Jamaica, the poster seems to be unveiled, and Jamaican reggae music is performed on the world stage.
This work is inspired by the Reggae dance. The combination of a dancing girl and a guitar online shows the two art forms harmoniously merge together. As Reggae music spreads worldwide today, this work symbolizes that the message of peace, represented in Reggae music and culture, has influenced every corder of the world.
My poster depicts an arrow going through a target board with a heart at its center. The entire poster used the Reggae colors save for the black used as the background.
The symbol of the lion is the symbol of music, and then the rich theme color is used to make the passion and energy full.
When I first started this Poster I Knew I wanted to incorporate the name of Reggae with some instrument that has a symbolic meaning to Reggae. I also wanted to incorporate the Jamaican flag since Reggae and Rastafari culture originate from there. I chose to incorporate the peace sign into the guitar strings because it symbolizes the heavy use of the acoustic guitar in reggae music and how it helped spread the message of reggae which is peace and love.
Jamaican music is the music of Earth. It is powerful and addictive. It has a special energy and vibe so influence everyone. That’s why I had drawn reggae vinyl record like a UFO.
Reggae reflects people`s life and its different sides and I wanted to express Reggae represent it on the bright side of life as it is the light of the life and its reflection. This is the Reggae message that it is the rythem of the steps of people in their lives.
The idea of the poster is “Tolerance”.
Tolerance is complicated word.
Tolerance consist of many aspects: tolerance to race or tolerance to opinion or tolerance to self expression.
The spirit of reggae is conveyed through the isomorphism of notation and instrument.
