In early 2020, I entered the design competition for the Altanta Jazz Festival. The winning entries would be used for promotional materials and merchandise for the event. I wanted to evoke the energy and formal playfulness of jazz music in my designs. The designs blend the structured fluidity that jazz revels in with the controlled chaos of the beautiful city of Atlanta, my hometown. The design featuring the bassist was to be the poster design and the design with the instruments and buildings was to be the t-shirt design. The 2020 Atlanta Jazz Festival was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
