Affiche

Sometimes we find ourselves enchanted—when the train arrives or departs from a station—by walls covered in old, deteriorated, and torn posters that blend together. As the train starts moving and you become distracted, you can only catch glimpses of those layered walls, fragments of colors, almost like watercolor smudges left on the wall, transforming the overlapping layers of even the most mundane posters into an abstract work. Mimmo Rotella understood this very well—it's that blurred world created by the movement of a departing train that inspired this graphic, chaotic yet harmonious at the same time.
