Emotion – Posters by the Design Team

Jacinta Rossetto, Harri Thorne, Alex White, and Adam Dickin

Our theme for the past few months of ScratchThat has been Emotion, as our printed zine reflects, exploring different feelings and actions through all forms of art—short story, poetry, photography, visual art, and even video. We chose the theme Emotion to encompass what it means to be human, and to feel human. Emotions are fickle things, often written off as too much or too little. But it is something close to the hearts of all artists, and we can’t help but let our art delve deep into the human soul, in its darkest crevices and brightest peaks.

Below you will find a collection of posters and other forms of artwork that our magazine design team have done throughout this time, emphasising and amplifying emotions through imagery and graphic design. Embrace the emotions as they have and enjoy these posters.
