The Workshop poster


The idea for the poster came from the large number of photographs I took during the workshop I actually participated in Windhoek in October. I wanted to use the photographs as a starting point. At the same time I wanted to bring in a new and fresh approach for a local (Namibian) traditional crafts. Random is a word I would describe my implementation idea for the poster. I wanted to make a "Poster Generator" that makes a new kind of poster everytime.
