As a self-initiated challenge to my typical workflow and process, this poster series was a visual experiment in complete creative freedom. Instead of employing a conventional design approach with a preliminary drawing phase, these song-inspired pieces were created directly in the computer for maximum spontaneity and flexibility. I approached each poster as its own "conceptual sandbox" in which ideas could be attempted, created, and destroyed without concern for the ultimate outcome.

This poster adapts the title of the song into a visual composition where letters fall into place like Tetris blocks between vertical and horizontal gridlines. The background is a manipulated photograph of the building Aqua Tower in Chicago, IL, which features an architectural design resembling jigsaw pieces stacking on top of each other.

Drawing inspiration from the narrative of the song, this design uses a digitally manipulated image of folded fabric as a metaphor for closing the gap between two distant things. The poster's text is deliberately set in the middle of the composition to impede legibility and encourage a more careful examination of the poster.

This poster sets the text of Owen Pallett's song The Riverbed on top of a heavily edited photograph of Olafur Eliasson's 2014 installation, also entitled Riverbed, in which the artist installed a full-scale riverbed complete with flowing water inside the gallery space.
Distorted typography floats on top of the layout, reinforcing the theme of moving water and tying together the titles of the two source artworks.
