55. IAMALWAYSHUNGRY
During the election year, the firm iamalwayshungry was invited by
One Show of New York to create a poster for an exhibit they were doing
—a poster designed in the form of political propaganda. Nessim Higson
and John Finnell teamed up to showcase in ink on paper a common
sentiment—one they felt certain was shared by many in the United States
today—about the political climate in which we all live and the great burden
of consequences we all face as a result.
“We wanted to say something powerful about the current
political state,” says Finnell, and the response to their poster has
been wholly appreciative. “We liked the way John Heart. eld used
design and art as a voice, used it as a vehicle to grasp people and
get a message across,” he says. The posters can be downloaded
from the internet for free, taken to any cheap print house for copies,
and hopefully, “plastered all over every city in the United
States,” say Finnell and Higson.
“We both have strong views of how our government has been
two-sided and hypocritical,” says Higson. “We couldn’t have done
anything more personal, hitting the points we care about most.”
