About this poster
This poster was obviously inspired by the Cure’s first big hit when I was a kid.
“A Forest”
The image came to me in a dream like most of my poster ideas do . I got offered the job and it’s a bucket list job but I was in the middle of several deadlines so I wasn’t sure if I could fit it in… But then I had the dream.. and it was so simple… but in my head, it looked cool, so I woke up and I said yes I want that job. Robert Smith said he liked my art. “It’s Fab”. That’s the highest compliment.
The song- and the poster…evoke a very cinematic feel. A big close up of Robert Smith’s iconic eyes and signature distinct hair becoming the forest with a reflection of a long lost memory. Also, maybe in the poster there’s a few other little hidden song references as well…
“Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl while you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes
I hear her voice
Calling my Name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Suddenly I stop
But I know it’s too late
I’m lost in a Forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It’s always the same
I’m running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again”
