The reason that I have chosen this
picture is because I would like to create a similar poster. I like the fact that
the man is standing out, the colours and the cloud of smoke stand out due to
the contrast of having a black background. The cloud of smoke is taking a big
part of the photo and looks like a cloud. I would like to represent the smoking
marijuana not in the way we think about it or use it in Western countries but
instead highlight the real meaning of smoking marijuana within the Rastafari
culture (which involve meditation, to emphasise the sense of community as well
as producing visions of a religious and calming nature).
What interested me in this poster is mainly the way how this
rapper a boogie wit da hoodie is
sitting and the way he is dressed which represents a more modern, urban style
as I am looking at mixing in my own poster an old fashion with an urban
version.
What I like the most in this poster is actually the display
of the white writing that mirror the white of the sclera of the eyes. I also
like the contrast of him standing strong and powerful all in black as a black
person in front of lot of people which represents his friends, artists and
family.
