SONG

Red Room

ARTIST

Hiatus Kaiyote

GENRE

Neo-Soul

In this poster, I aim to evoke the ethereal atmosphere created by the rawness in Nai Palm’s voice and the subtle layering of sounds. Through dynamic typography, I visualize the song's abstract emotions and unique sonic landscape.

SONG

Shaam

ARTIST

Amit Trivedi

GENRE

Pop/Folk

My poster explores the lyrical depth found within the song. Typography reflects the flow of a river, the passing of time, and essence of the night sky that is found in this song’s emotional narrative.

SONG

Sound & Color

ARTIST

Alabama Shakes

GENRE

Alternative/Indie

An enchanting composition known for the dynamic vocal presence of Brittany Howard – my typographic poster for this song is inspired by the sharpness in the vocals, the lifts and pauses in the sonic quality of the performance, and the imagery of a new world.
