Retracing

the Past

Experimental Music Poster
Light of Her Life
    A music poster paying homage to
cellist Jacqueline du Pré, who left
        an indelible mark on the history
throughout her tragically short life.
Objective
Develop a poster that interprets a piece of music and the story behind it through typography, imagery and layout. Screens and projectors are used to compose different elements onto various surfaces and thus to create more a dimensional design solution.

Approach
As a classical player of the cello, I selected the Cello Concerto in E minor, Op. 85 by Edward Elgar. The piece was played by Jacqueline du Pré, who was considered one of the most talented cellists at the time and known for bringing this piece to life. The senses of nostalgia and yearning were what inspired me and I experimented with lighting and typography to fully express the idea.
