We’re proud to unveil David V. D’Andrea‘s next installment of his Roadburn series: the Shrinebuilder and Black Mountain posters.
David comments: “The four members of Shrinebuilder are like titans, too iconic to fuse into one, visually and aesthetically. All four respective bands have been mountains of inspiration for me at some point in life, which makes any potential image all the more difficult to conjure. The “shrine”, to me, is ultimately the self. My solution as an artist faced with the task to “illustrate” Shrinebuilder is to distill the piece down to components of one huge, cosmic, heraldic crest.
“Black Mountain’s grounded earthy style of rock has always reminded me of soaring hawks and nature’s mysticism. The “psychedelic Inuit” has been an ongoing theme in poster art since the 1960s, and I took this opportunity to ink my version.”
