FELA KUTI : RÉBELLION AFROBEAT

PARIS
ART DIRECTION & MOTION DESIGN
[2022]


Inspired by the vivid color palette, musical rhythm, and captivating typography of the Fela Kuta exhibition at the Philharmonie de Paris, my project aimed to encapsulate the essence of Fela's universe through an animated poster. Focused solely on typography, the dynamic design unfolds a rhythmic journey, mirroring the lively spirit of the exhibition. The chosen typeface closely aligns with the exhibition's typography, enhancing the thematic connection. Each typographic movement is carefully synchronized with a changing color scheme, creating a visual symphony that captures the exhibition's vibrancy without revealing its content. The animated poster serves as an enticing and rhythmic preview, encouraging viewers to experience the exhibition firsthand without giving away its artistic secrets.
