Entry Description

The Cain and Abel poster is part of the visual identification prepared for the theatre’s festival Close Strangers. On the poster we can see personified scissors, which, in a gesture of cutting off hisbrother’s head, also hurts himself. For both sides, this gesture becomes an expression of ambiguity, not only because of the violent act of one person toward another, but also because of the complexity of human relationships and the surrounding reality. A simple and schematic form impacts with a bright and expressive communication, undisturbed with unnecessary additives.
