Calavera prints by Telegramme
Posted by Mark Sinclair, 6 August 2010, 11:40 Permalink Comments (5)

Celebrate the Day of the Dead a little earlier this year, with this great set of prints from London-based studio, Telegramme...
The graphic design and illustration studio kindly sent CR a set of their latest printed beauties, the Calavera Summer Series.
Each is an A3 Risograph print and packs a fairly power colour combination. Printed by Landfill Editions the prints are £17 each, or £45 for the set (there are 50 of each design). They're available, here. More from Telegramme at telegramme.co.uk.

These are certainly striking images which call on various esoteric motifs to fill the spaces, namely the Cult of Osiris and the Order of the Rose and Cross (Rosicrucianism) to name but two. A touch of Lotus flower mixed in with the Blazing Star, not to mention the Mayan Crystal Skulls gives a rather spell binding effect. The upside-down cross (Cross of St. Peter) has been spotted as well. All remarkable, but not quite my cup of tea.

I am totally in love with these, bought my set last night and cant wait for them to arrive. Genuinely stunning, like pretty much all of their work. Super talented.

Wow - these are fantastic. I got my set. A snip too, for a limited edition like this I think.
