This piece was intended as direct mail with the finished size being a 5" x 7" postcard. The SF Symphony needed to create a marketing campaign targeting single concert ticket sales. In order to attract consumers to specific concerts I created a line of advertising that "tells the story behind the music," adding a human component to the esoteric appeal of the music alone.
For this piece I found Johannes Brahm's death mask and used it as a spring board for several pieces with differing copy.
