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. Currently teaching computer graphics, design thinking and audiovisual editing in a university course.

“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: Freedom

For the first Poster Monday of October we featuring the poster “Freedom” from our previously featured designer Neda Abbasali Zadeh from Mashhad, Iran.

Iran at this moment is experiencing a very important social movement, part of its society no longer supports the restrictions and abuses imposed on women, sadly the trigger for this was the loss of the life of the young Mahsa Amini in the hands of the Police Moral. The voices in the country and outside of it demand freedom, we hope that they achieve it not only in this country but that one day not too far away the freedom of women in the world will not be a wish but a reality.

Neda tell us “Freedom is nothing but the right to live the way we want, and we do not have the simplest right in our country, Iran. Women are arrested and killed or imprisoned for saying the smallest right to choose. We do not have the right to speak and This means being in a cage. Life without freedom is like a body without a soul. In my poster, I depicted the bound and captive hands of young women and girls of my country to make their captivity known to the whole world”.

If you would like to learn more from Neda and her work visit her web page and stay tuned with us until we reveal the next Poster Monday spot, visit our facebook page and find out more about poster news, events and competitions.

POSTER MONDAY: No War

Last place for September goes to Mikhail Lychkovskiy and his poster “No war”. He is the contemporary designer and poster artist. His works are based on typographic treatment and mixing of national graphic styles.

“The poster was made in the last days of February this year and it relies on the aesthetics of designers, whom I consider saints for various reasons. To pay tribute to Peter Bankov, I used acrylic paint, a tired brush and a broken toothpick. The rocket peels off like a sticker (or like a plaster) — to honor Shigeo Fukuda, as a designer who survived a terrible war and left the strongest statements about it. I don’t really believe that people who start wars can listen to the sayings on the poster. But. In a sense, the work was done out of helplessness and to overcome helplessness. This is a question that is important to ask yourself and find an answer to it: What can you do to stop the war? You can always do at least something to make the world a better place (or at least not make it worse)” tell us Mikhail.

If you would like to learn more from Mikhail and his work visit his web page and stay tuned with us until we reveal the next Poster Monday spot, visit our facebook page and find out more about poster news, events and competitions.

Poster Monday: Bridge

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.
