Repetition and Life: bud, P2424

A work presented in the university Faculty Research Exhibition. This research poster explores whether an organic sense of life can be expressed through the simple operation of repetition. By layering three identical posters, it blurs figure–ground relations and the orientation of the surface, generating spatial and kinetic complexity. The work received the Grand Prix at the Lahti International Poster Triennial 2025 and was exhibited at Malva – Lahti Museum of Visual Arts.
