This masterpiece shows up how music is a peaceful weapon when without making any harm can shoot a positive message to the mass.
This masterpiece shows up how music is a peaceful weapon when without making any harm can shoot a positive message to the mass.
My poster depicts the identity of reggae music filled with love and courage through the symbols of a lion, guitar, heart with colors that represent the energetic and joyful Jamaican community. Through his songs Bob Marley voiced love to others with courage against oppression, greed, discrimination and injustice. This is a message from Jamaica delivered to the world, until now Bob Marley’s songs have inspired the world community.
Poster is an abstract geometrical composition that celebrates the energy, positive vibes, cultural variety and african heritage of reggae music. The artistic direction communicates and brings avant-garde/bauhaus’ modernism and reggae together.
The World needs more Love, more Peace and more Reggae
Since its inception way back in 1968, Reggae is the widest known Jamaican music genre in the world. It deserves to be seen and revered by us for its colorful, vibrant, strengthening and versatile style. My poster, in the form of a playing card – the King card, is designed to depict all these concepts, and shows how various instruments are encompassed to form a singular harmony. The king card concept is also a nod to Kingston in Jamaica, where Reggae music was culturally born.
The poster expresses that all countries in the world are attracted by the charm of reggae music.
They listen to the Jamaican spirit from all over the world, and One Love becomes All Love.
I wanted to design the poster as if we were looking from above, so we cannot see the artist’s face, but we recognize his cap which reflects his culture.
The new design method is also an invitation to see reggae art from another angle, and to try to discover all new secrets in it.

This poster is directly inspired by the power of one of my favorite pieces of reggae made by a great reggae artist that I deeply love as a human and singer: Nasio Fontaine. This song symbolizes for me the best way of life to follow for the human being to envisage his life even in the difficult moments it is always necessary to see the positive in everything and especially to think positive to create a positive exchange with the world. As Nasio Fontaine said “Living in the positive cause i know love will conquer evil”. For me it’s not just a message in a song, it’s the truth for humanity. Only reggae has this strength to educate people, to give them advice to be better in their lives and especially in their exchange with others. For me living in the positive is a mental awareness which everyone should be inspired by, it is a way of living, and a way of thanking and respecting life and giving love at all times. The smile on the face of Nasio on my work represent the positive vibes that we love, that we believe in, and that we wanted to share with every people.
We tried to convey to the audience all the power of music, the strength of the spirit of freedom, friendship and equality of reggae culture.
