Black Mamba
Rock Explosion
— Live at Tetris

Poster ✓

Black Mamba Rock Explosion is a hard rock band from Trieste (Italy). I made this poster for their live show at Tetris club, eager to transmit also visually all the ferocity the band spreads on their concerts through a strong ‘claustrophobic’ image of a ‘rocking’ hand wrapped by crawling snakes. A venomous bite can be seen on the sickly-rising hand, obstinate in keep on rocking. A sting of poisonous but marvellous rock’n’roll, coursing through veins just like a sweet drug.

 

Notes

The ‘snake texture’ featured in this poster’s image is inspired by the ‘reptile photography collages’ made by artist Guido Mocafico. This (not commercial) poster is realized such as a homage to his work.
