Team Kryptonite- Primitive Figuration

The use of primitive figuration is the simplification of the body, head, arms, legs and facial features. Primitive figuration are the reduction of realistic forms into raw, abstract, interpretive sharp. It stems from primitive African art, which was introduced to the west through German Expressionist graphics in 1905.

This poster was influenced by the outline drawn by the police to indicate the position of a murder victim.
