Reggae spirit | China
The spirit of reggae is conveyed through the isomorphism of notation and instrument.

Music always helps people overcome difficulties and have fun. Each element of the poster has its own meaning. Guitar is us. Notes are music that is with us in life. The Jumbo drum is an ethnic element. The Rastafarian hat is a story, a REGGAE story…
“Shape of Reggae” is a reggae-themed poster with many different ethnic shapes. The meaning of many different geometric shapes is people from different cultures who love Reggae. Whether you’re black or muslim, if you’re gay or fatty. No matter blind, middle eastern or jewish. We’re on the same place/same poster and we love same music.
Use the piano as the mouth to express music, use the ball as the eye to express the world.
A type-based atmospheric poster is another way I’m exploring the Reggae phenomenon. This Poster isn’t afraid to get dirty, bold and minimal. The backdrop is the beginning of 80s – me sitting in a sunny living room in my birth town Riga, being 3 years old, playing with the swedish cubes thinking that yellow and ‘swedish blue’ don’t work together, I rather see it as black and yellow. Record is playing on the background. I’m happy! I love this design, brings me back to that moment.
