The Life & Death Illustrated, by R.Ferrer.
‘It all started with a spark, then grew bright and shiny, only to end up fading away in darkness.’
The Life & Death Illustrated is French Illustrator Romain Ferrer’s last piece of work. This new poster plays on the understanding of idiomatic expressions and the representation of a concept translated into a graphical system. ‘The misuse of words and lexical fields, throughout literature, always brings to life amusing graphical analogies. Behind all strong concepts such as Life, Death, Sex and many others [...] you will always find references that link them all together: it gets very confusing. Take the color red for instance: it is the color of blood(flow) for ‘Life’, the color of blood(stain) for ‘Death’, and the color of heat and passion for ‘Sex’. Just work by association, it works all the time.’
