Dima Shiryaev is a Russian graphic designer known for his experimental and diverse design style. His work includes posters for nightclubs, festivals, and exhibitions, notably collaborating with Kunznya House. What defines Shiryaev’s art style is the use of typography, bold geometric designs, and use of contrasting colors.
The reason I chose this designer is because I have been struggling to find my own artstyle. Seeing Shiryaev’s style allowed me the power of creative freedom, incorporating different elements.
To represent his work, I viewed certain posters with similar styles, specifically the Samo DJ poster and The Villars poster. I appreciated the combination of loose, sketch style with contrasting bold, geometric shapes. To incorporate these, I illustrated the silhouette of the bike with the trackpad to give a sense of /roughness. Many of the text are wrote within boxes, cutting part of the text off. I accomplished by using the “Draw Inside” feature on Illustrator. Other elements include using contrasting colors, and using varying font styles.
