Alexander Scriabin's Prometheus: Poem of Fire

Self-initiated brief developing a series of three posters to promote a 2010 performance of Alexander Scriabin's Prometheus; Poem of Fire. A unique symphony written in 1910 and includes a score for colour light, played on an experimental instrument, Claviér á Lumiére. I also developed a short booklet to give some background on Scriabin and the colour-music symphony; and also showcase the poster art.

I am God! I am nothing, I'm play, I am freedom, I am life. I am the boundary, I am the peak.

Whereas we today relate music with lights and colour; Alexander Scriabin's symphony Prometheus: Poem of Fire is a unique piece of musical genius. Transcribing a piece of 'visual music' , Scriabin – a self proclaimed Synesthete – created a symphony of colour to be played on an instrument lost to the ages called a Lumiere a Clave.
