grotesque portrait of the institute (poster design)


The idea came from a friend who is doing an AP programme in the engineering department. she told me that they have endless assignments, homework and test and it makes her feel like she is trapped in a dark tunnel surrounded by work, and the tunnel is so long that it will take her 5 yrs to reach the end.

I was going to make the poster horizontally (because the effect is much better) but someone told me the "portrait" has to be layed vertically. (turns out that was not true) now it is much weaker than the horizontal version, but i lost the original document ...T__T (will probably make another one someday, if i have time

  1. This poster has done well in a way which portrays the word "grotesque" in a different sense - rather than simply covering the institute with blood and monsters, it visualises the inner world and thinking of students. What actually makes an institute look freaky? The assignments, worksheets, all other paper works which come endlessly as the artist suggests - a tunnel almost without an exit. Overall this piece captures the atmosphere spot on.
