LiArS



Jason Munn’s poster for the US band Liars

Jason uses type to reinforce the meaning of this statements, which looks like cut letters, to symbolize someone telling a lie or half truth.  If you look a little closer you will see the "L" is really a black knife which could mean the someone is trying to hide it. I think that this speaks to use of assertive tone of the speaker. Overall, I would say that this poster reinforces: secrets, lies and deception.

Type that compliments!

I think this type really compliments the theme here. I think the uses serif and san serif creates a distinction between two logos. I also like the manipulation of the mother and child logo.
