CLOUDY 9 W|T<br />

The artwork consists of<br />

a gradient and a grid of<br />

crosshairs. The colour<br />

scheme is referencing the<br />

two special ingredients in<br />

the beer: mango and orange<br />

peel. The grid of crosshairs is<br />

inspired by the photos from<br />

the Apollo missions to the<br />

Moon, where they were used<br />

to carry out measurements<br />

and correct distortions.<br />

Here they are placed over<br />

an abstract gradient and are<br />

transformed into formal<br />

aesthetic symbols instead of<br />

scientific tools.<br />

THE HAZE CRAZE<br />

This design consists of a<br />

photo shot through some<br />

frosted glass depicting<br />

some kind of building or<br />

structure. The image has<br />

been turned 90 degrees<br />

and the blurriness of the<br />

artwork caused by the<br />

frosted glass is a reference<br />

to the hazy nature of the<br />

beer. Furthermore, the image<br />

is balancing just on the<br />

verge of abstraction. It could<br />

be mistaken for a painting<br />

or a piece of Photoshop<br />

generated artwork. It is<br />

not about photography’s<br />

ability to make believable<br />

representations of reality. It<br />

is about the texture of the<br />

image and the almost tactile<br />

quality of the final print.
