What catches your eye first?

A festival announcement needs a date you can remember. A concert poster needs a name you can spot. My design work for Festari spanned both, alongside teasers and artwork for individual events. These pairs show how the emphasis shifted from one edition to the next.

2023

From vineyard to stage

A curling tendril and a bunch of grapes frame the festival dates. On the Rock Festari poster, the purple stays, but an electric green shape pulls the singer forward. His raised arm breaks its outline.

Green vine tendrils and grapes surround the dates 18–23 September on a deep purple poster.

2024

A date in two languages

“Shtator” and “September” share the same size and weight on the cream announcement. The artist poster switches to a dense magenta field, with a white outline around Andrea Tartaglia and his chair.

2025

A question fills the poster

“A jeni gati?” (“Are you ready?”) takes up most of the teaser. In the programme poster, the words move to the foot of the page. A sculpted profile fills the space above them, its outline breaking into a cluster of grapes.

2026

Two events, one shape

The rock poster opens with a black-and-white band portrait. The art colony poster opens with a multicoloured figure on red. At the foot of both, a yellow burst holds the event name, date and venue.
