Graphic Design
A digital poster series exploring duality through portraiture and collage. Each composition combines photographic faces, close-up fragments, mirrored typography and linear profile drawings to create images that sit between human likeness and graphic abstraction.

Theme
The project began with the idea of duality. I wanted each portrait to be read in two ways at once: photographic and drawn, whole and fragmented, recognisable and distorted.
Approach
Each poster was constructed by collaging facial close-ups back over the original portrait, then adding mirrored typography and linear profile drawings influenced by Kraftwerk’s cover art. The tension between soft photographic material and hard graphic line work carries the visual language of the series.
