ABCDARIO (ENGLISH)We wanted to make an illustrated poster using hair. The idea was to create a word game with abecedario (alphabet) and the dark and aryan tonalities of human hair.
We walked up to a hairdressing salon and asked them a favour: to save us some hair in little plastic bags. By chance, Sef was carrying his ukulele and the hairdressers asked for a musical performance in return. A fair deal, two days later he returned and sang them a song written specially for the occasion in exchange for the precious and varied hair. This poster is the result, submitted to Iconographic Magazine's call Lettering, letras hechas a mano (handmade typography).
