Creation By Destruction

Creation By Destruction is a hypothetical exhibition, featuring a book, posters, and spatial design. The curated artists are contemporary muralists with a shared theme of symbolism in their portraiture work. The book finish size is 8.5"x11.5" and is wrapped with an option of 1 of 3 folded 24"x36" exhibition posters as a cover. (Each poster features 2 of the 6 artists.)
