Silkroad Film Festival 2023

For the 11th edition of the Silk Road International Film Festival (SRFF), I designed a vibrant and contemporary poster that reflects the festival’s spirit of cultural exchange and cinematic diversity. The illustration features a central character gazing through binoculars, symbolizing curiosity, discovery and the bridging of cultures through film. The binoculars reveal dynamic motifs, evoking the richness of the countries once connected by the historic Silk Road trade routes. The design uses bold colors and stylized forms to capture attention and convey the festival’s focus on Asian, Arab, Persian, Middle Eastern, African, Mediterranean and European cinema. The typographic choices and graphic elements aim to balance modernity with a sense of tradition, aligning with SRFF’s mission to celebrate both heritage and innovation in global filmmaking. The poster was created for the 2023 edition held in Dublin, Ireland, from 13th to 24th November.
