Doctor bird is the national animal of Jamaica. On my poster the bird hold a letter with a peace signed stamp.
This is a design based on Iran/Kashan rug to show another point of view to Reggae and its culture.
Colors are the basis of my composition. I chose to create shapes from colored planes. These colors are what identify the culture, mysticism and brotherhood of Reggae.
Use the color yellow to represent the earth as a mother, as a livelihood of nature, which is embodied in the green planes; and red, the blood of humanity, not as much as spilled blood, but as a representation of life.
Incorporate those musical instruments that give reggae life and joy, what characterizes it and brings the winds of the Songs of Freedom.
Reggae Music brings us closer together
Reggae music offers us infinite possibilities, infinite happiness, infinite infinite. The picture uses the infinity symbol to form the subject. These three colors become strings, forming dynamic lines in the picture, as if creating unlimited possibilities.
Reggae music from Jamaica to the world. Here, the well-known Jamaican expression “Pull up” is used, used in many genres of this musical style, requesting another round from the beginning of the song. In this metaphor the planet appears in constant “Pull up”, similar to the prosperity of reggae around the world, spinning on the Jamaican turntable. Associated with this graphic metaphor is a hand with a bracelet in the colors of reggae, as if the reggae had just started / finished turning to the world again.
Life is going on in Reggae.
Blood, love and tears can all be felt at once
In researching reggae music and Jamaica’s culture and with citing to the rich music and protest texts and poems or the movies were made in related to this subject such as the harder they come, we faced the importance of music and the concepts like, freedom, peace, resistance, revolution, courage, poverty, hope, and also we find out that music was born from the Jamaica’s culture and the governing conditions.
Due to the theme of this year’s competition (messages from Jamaica to the world) and the special significance of the message and it’s transmission to the world, in designing this poster used the text of songs by Bob Marley as one of the most prominent Reggae characters and these texts are mostly objectionable.
This poster like a letter containing all the words Bob Marley wanted to say to the world.
All of these poems and texts are designed on picture of Bob Marley, inviting the Viewer that sing with me or shout with me.
Another point in the design of this poster is the importance of some words like freedom, peace, courage, guitar, resistance and revolution that reggae appears from the letters of these words, and also refer to this subject that reggae was born from these concepts.
Reggae music is an element of peace. The world must hear the message of musical peace. Reggae’s music is soothing and energetic and exciting.
