Type of project Poster, Expressing Identity Through Letters and Words
Role  Illustrator, artist, originator
Tools Hand-drawing, Adobe Illustrator

Welcome to discover the fascinating world where an artist's identity is expressed through intricate play of letters and words. My "Typography Self-Portrait" poster is the essence of creativity, typographic skills, and deep reflection on one's own self. The project finally presented during the diploma at the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź.

Expressing Identity Through Letters and Words

Overview The poster is based on a photo and handwriting made with pigma micron pens. You will find words that define me in Polish. This is a real private self-portrait. Then, after scanning the typography, the poster was refined in adobe illustrator, and finally enhanced with colors reflecting my identity. 

The poster was created in several color variations - based on contrast and clarity. In print, the colors came out amazingly.

Summary

My benefits The poster was presented at my graduation ceremony at the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź. It is more difficult to talk about myself, and that was the difficulty of this project. It required self-reflection, conversations with friends, and it was particularly difficult in terms of planning and execution in such a way that it would also reflect my personality and artistic tastes. 

In addition, this color scheme required careful thought to make the print as intense as it was exciting. At the same time, I found a great printer who handled the printing perfectly.
