Arrival Alternative Poster in the style of Van Gogh
I was introduced to Van Gogh at a young age by my grandmother, who loved his work. I’ve always felt a connection to, and was deeply moved by his paintings and his life story, and how someone could struggle in the ways he did and still bring such incredible work to life.
Arrival is one of my all time favorite movies, and pairing it with Van Gogh felt so natural. Practically, I felt that the imagery of Arrival - specifically the interior of the pod, the foggy atmosphere the heptapods live in, and the swirling nature of their language - worked so well with the depth and motion of Van Gogh’s style.
