An original poster for the Paroles et Musiques Festival, a French cultural event celebrating the spoken word and live music. Bold, graphic and immediately arresting, the design captures the energy of a festival that placed poetry, song and performance at its centre — a counterpoint to the visual noise of mainstream advertising and a genuine document of France's vibrant festival culture in the 1990s
