I would love to get me my hands on these letterpress plaid cards. I would rub them all day long.

This poster is a personal poster. A poster that speaks of an experience and of a new thing learned. Derek Gabryszak was first introduced to silkscreen during his internship in Buffalo, NY, just before moving to New York City.
I'm sure there are other people like me, that come to New York City from a significantly smaller town. For people with that story, we arrive with pretty big intimidation of what the city has in store for us. Eventually that feeling passes and life feels a bit more normal...
By illustrating his sentiment and finding the cheapest materials at the hardware and art stores of the city, Derek was able to bring it all together in a way that will most likely make you smile. If only you could touch how heavy the ink feels on the paper, rough texture deeply set in the fibers.
Comments
Its funny that you mention how heavy the ink is. As soon as I saw the word SEEM on the poster, I thought it had that heavy oil paint texture. Nice Job on the printing and design.
Many thanks to our ADV × 3 partners
