While posters are usually created to be looked at for information or pleasure, this one is designed to be destroyed. In fact, the entire poster is an instruction for burning it. It contains all the necessary warnings and has even a burning scale. Its rounded corners refer to warning signs. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby!

In addition to the ‘design’ layer, there is also an artistic one: the burning process is a performance, which means that the process is also an artistic work, and it turns the participant of the process into an artist.

70×100 cm digital print. The fonts in use are Rubik by Hubert & Fischer, and Necto Mono and Apfel Grotezk, available from Coletttivo.

P.S.: Of course it is better not to use vinyl and other toxic paint and materials to burn it!
