Best art project ever

As you know, I love project-based art. It’s about stuff that isn’t just one piece, but a series of pieces that trickle in and eventually fit together to make a jigsaw puzzle of sorts. Gideon Slife (Gideon’s Life?) has embarked on a project that I really, really dig— a set of minimalist promotional posters, each based on an episode of Lost. As the show heads into the home stretch of the final season, a lot of people (including me) are revisiting old episodes in a (perhaps futile) effort to try to make sense of everything. These posters are particularly amazing because even with just a small amount of information, as soon as you see the image and read the quote you remember exactly which episode that was.

Who am I kidding, it’s impossible to choose favourites. Have a look at all the posters and you’ll see what I mean. Considering the pace of uploads, it looks to me like Gideon is timing it so that the end of his project coincides with the season finale. Fantastic stuff. Link
