Mask of Environment: Burning tree, endangered species, ozone layer.

Mask of Modernity: Gnarling highway, electrical waves of communication in the city.Mask of Philosophy: Old Chinese philosophy, religion, Sanscrit, lotus.

AUDIENCE: 125% increase from previous year. VISIBILITY: Poster enthusiasts were taking them off the wall. Many inquired. The high-quality finish of gold emboss printing and design, must have made the posters worth collecting.

EFFICIENCY: Budget was same as previous year, thanks to the idea to spin-off DM’s from the pre-printed poster. Idea offset the luxurious cost of gold emboss printing.
