  • hey! Pierrot le Fou returns to @criterioncollection with a new 2K restoration — and a brand new cover. unfortunately, we couldn't use my original art, but this gave me the chance to revisit work, retrace design decisions (from 13 years ago!) and come up with something new. when you crack it open in October, you might notice a bunch of other changes to the packaging.  .

  • cover and packaging design for Cristian Mungiu's 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days, for @criterioncollection. we actually started work on this title three (four?) years ago, but the film elements weren't ready, so it was put on hold until last year. released in 2007, it's still a sobering and urgent reminder that restricting and criminalizing reproductive healthcare can have devastating effects on the lives of women #criterioncollection #criterion #mungiu #romaniancinema #arthousecinema #palmedor #cannesfilmfestival #bluray #specialedition
