Poster Monday: Conversation 

The first Poster Monday of February is “Conversation” designed by Goyen Chen, born in Taichung, Taiwan, specializing in graphic design. Graduated with a PhD in Digital Media Design from Asia University, his work has been exhibited in 35 countries in the past almost two years.

“The intention of this poster is to reflect on the way people talk to each other today. We all tend to resent people who disagree with us, so conversations can easily turn violent, like a gun that is just one hand away from being loaded and the trigger pulled. Because I feel so strongly about the proliferation of gun violence in our society, I just want to make it clear that the root of the violence problem is really more about communication and not taking action and never creating an irreversible situation, and once you do take action, it’s out of control. I am passionate about creating posters, hoping to replace language barriers with images so that we can communicate without barriers around the world” tell us Goyen

He has a PhD in Digital Media Design from Asia University and have won 30 national design awards in just one year since started submitting posters to competitions last year.

“The poster “War Only Brings Pain” mainly wants to express, for those who start a war, and then decide to start a war at the moment, the pain will come with it. I believe my poster appeals to the public in the simplest and clearest way possible that war only brings pain, and no matter who wins or loses today, there will be some painful losses. I hope that the leaders of all countries will think seriously before starting a war, we all live on the same land.

I created this poster at the end of May this year, when the war between Russia and Ukraine was going on. I wanted to use my small power to let everyone know that no matter what conflict we face today, the people who use violence are absolutely to blame for everyone’s suffering” tell us Goyen.

POSTER MONDAY: Peace

Today’s Poster Monday spot belongs to Ameneh Moayedi and her poster “Peace” Ameneh is a Iranian graphic designer living in Paris.  She spent high school in the field of graphics in the south of Iran and continued the bachelor’s degree in the same field and worked for many years.  In 2012, Ameneh moved to France for a master’s degree in visual communication.

“In graphic art, I like posters and I work mostly in this field.  I also examine modern carpet designers and research on the role of women in carpet weaving and the influence of poetry on Iranian carpet patterns.  Painting and drawing are my interests and I have had many exhibitions in this field. Usually my posters are minimal because I like simplicity in posters.  Custom posters for movies, theater and music concerts.  But I like non-commissioned posters whose subjects are social, cultural and political concerns. What concerns me the most is “humanity and love”.  As we see in this poster, loving, loving people to each other and kindness…!  It is free and we can communicate to each other even with a small smile.  I always keep in mind the city of the great Persian poet who says:

“Human beings are body parts of each other,
In creation they are indeed of one essence.
If a body part is afflicted with pain,
Other body parts uneasy will remain.
If you have no sympathy for human pain,
The name of human you shall not retain.”

Saadi Shirazi
12th century

We cannot be indifferent to the pain and problems of others, anywhere on earth.  We are related to each other, we are connected to each other and I always believe in this and with my art I try to convey my message to all the people of the world that I love them and all people are important to me. The heart in this poster is a symbol of humanity and love, and the olive leaf is a symbol of “Peace”… the pink color speaks of feelings for me.  I designed the poster in the simplest way.  A heart that gives an olive branch and speaks of “Peace”. Of course, after the war in Ukraine, I changed the same poster with the background of the country’s flag (blue and yellow) to show my solidarity with the people of Ukraine and opposition to the war” tell us Ameneh.

Poster Monday: Bridge

For the first Poster Monday spot of September we are featuring a poster from Hugo García who lives in Guadalajara, Mexico. Born in Ocotlán Jalisco, on 1969, his posters have been selected by renowned designers from different continents, and several times his posters have been placed among the best 50, in various international competitions. He has managed to be selected in the top ten of international posters with the theme of climate change and has been the guest of honor for the design and exhibition of social posters, in different countries such as Ecuador, Saudi Arabia, China, Spain, Venezuela, Russia, United States United States, Iran, North Korea, Peru, Turkey, Ukraine, Krakow and Mexico. The social poster has been a line of knowledge that has been present in his professional career as a designer, academic coordinator and professor of design at the Instituto de Estudios Superiores de Occidente ITESO.

“The poster Bridge was born for participating in different community projects as a self-taught bass player and guitarist, and in recent decades as a poster artist, have generated a taste for sharing and expressing for people the importance of doing for and with others. I believe that there are many things to do with others, in the places we inhabit and we cannot generate a change and lead a transition of society from an individualistic vision and suddenly, it requires everyone to turn around and walk connected to new horizons. to start with small but constant steps. Music and art in general manage to establish personal links between human beings to create a unity from diversity. The idea of ​​linking us through, as Vargas Llosa says, “good literature builds bridges between different people and, making us enjoy, suffer or surprise us, unites us below the languages, beliefs, uses, customs and prejudices that separate us” And this reminds us that there are more things that unite us than those that separate us” tell us Hugo.
