POSTER

A while back we bought a second hand sewing machine with our meagre budget... Last Saturday Daisy came around my place and used it to put together the poster for i am small THE WORLD IS BIG. I think the final outcome is a thing of beauty. And that comes from me, who up to now had always designed the posters for our projects using rather crude tools. As a n homage to her creative vision and her perseverance, and as a second part or follow up to her first round against a hand-operated sewing machine here is a little video.

And of course, below you can see the final poster. You would think that something relatively minor like a poster or a postcard would not make us loose any sleep. Unfortunately, we have a somewhat perfectionist streak. Which means that we have to carefully consider every little thing, including the relationship between the publicity material and the project. Daisy and I agreed that, even though the poster does not illustrate the project's aesthetic it does reflect its sentiment/ethos rather nicely... Judge for yourself.
