It was a personal project in December 2022. I created one new square poster every day and published it on my Instagram. You can see all 25 posters produced from scratch by experimenting with tools, forms, and techniques.
The story started from my thoughts about job search initiated by Douglas Coupland’s quote. I was thinking about getting a job offer as a getting lottery ticket and developed a poster with the 3D element translating that kind of vibe. I used that poster as a title image for my LinkedIn post.

I wanted ‘square that poster’ to be authentically mine, so I created posters with things I was worried about at that time.

Then, I started to look for inspiration in my day-to-day things. That’s how the poster ‘Hyvä sauna on aina suomalainen’ was created. I was using Duolingo to learn Finnish for some time, and one day came up with the idea to draw an illustration about that.
My imagination went wilder, so for the 8th poster, I asked the AI Midjourney to generate images with the keyword black. Using AI in the creation process is the future we can’t deny, so I came closer to that future.

While I was trying some new fun tools and techniques, I wanted this project to reflect my position. The 9th poster contained an illustration with the body positive movement theme, making a statement about myself as a person.

In the middle of December, I came to Tbilisi, Georgia. It was a perfect time to share the beauty of that place in a poster.

Just a white poster to believe it’s always light after dark.

In the 17th poster, I was trying to translate my feelings through design and animation. It’s me in the pic, by the way.

OK, holiday season. Time to celebrate, believe in miracles, and not be afraid of 2023.

In the 23rd poster, I was trying to use the maximum of illustration opportunities by creating a 2D illustration with endless 3D experience.

The last one. There is something deeper in every art piece that opens up only if you look into it.
