DescriptionThis submission-based creativity festival took place at Indiana University in Bloomington, AL, and featured a keynote speech by video game developer Gordon Walton (best known for his involvement in The Sims). The poster is printed on coated stock, a type of board that Amos Kennedy no longer uses. Not only is uncoated chipboard cheaper, but the brown color of his other posters emphasizes the rural nature of most of these events. The mask design in the upper right was hand- carved by Kennedy out of masonite, while the background features a repeated pressure print of the numbers 2005.On View
