A competition runs every year to design the promotional material for the Bath Fringe Festival. Based on my portfolio, I was part of the shortlist of students who would present work the the festival organisers.
I used illustrations of birds as I felt they were a brilliant signifier for the performers in the festival. Birds come in all shapes, sizes, colours and temperaments. They are the most varied vertebrate on the planet, with an estimated 10,000 living species. They have an exotic array of vocalisations and mating dances and thus are the thespians of the animal kingdom.
See below for photographs of the human-sized birds i built to promote the festival!
