VariAAtions poster

Brief

Design a poster that visualizes the music of Paul Dresher to promote an upcoming concert on CSU Chico campus.

Concept

Paul Dresher’s music is very abstract and textural. I started by choosing two contrasting typefaces. One, a thick, brushed script to identify the primal nature of Dresher’s music; the other a thin, condensed sans-serif that represents the hersher, more robotic instruments used. The overlapping text emulates the organized chaos that is characteristic to Dresher’s style, and the ambiguious photography is a nod abstract nature of his music.
