National Theatre of Greece, 2016-2018

We were commissioned by the National Theatre of Greece to create a system for visualising its productions for the 2016-17 and 2017-18 main seasons. For us, visual communication for the arts is an extension of the creative experience into the public space, so we wanted to somehow extend each play’s meanings and symbolisms into the city through our work. We used illustration for all posters and catalogue covers, with a symbol that relates to each play's theme but always has a twist that creates a second, uncanny layer of meaning to it. For the performance catalogues we opted for a combination of photography and typography in the body, and custom illustration and premium papers for the covers.
