Morning of... (Arabic Salutation)
Kafa Arabic and San Serif fonts
12” x 12” letterpress print
A common greeting, when translated in English, shows an exchange between people wishing each other well through a variety of phrases. The composition begins with the greeting Morning of Goodness, of which the response in Arabic is stating the same thing. Then the meaning grows by adding to the salutation with Morning of Light and Morning of Roses after each encounter. The poster is meant to feel conversational, as if two people were wishing each other well. The English was meant to be subdued in the background as a subtle response while the focus of the poster was the beautiful burgundy red of the Arabic lettering in the foreground.
