Golden A' Design Award Winner 2022
Scanning this rectangular composition arranged in landscape orientation, multiple copies of an illustrated book rest upon a warm coral-pink textured surface that feels like soft paper or matte cardboard. The central focus presents an open book spread, its pages curved gently at the spine, displaying vibrant illustrations of athletic figures engaged in track and field events. Beginning at the left page, a female runner dominates the foreground, her skin rendered in warm peachy-tan tones with golden yellow highlights suggesting strong directional light from above. She crouches in starting position, weight forward on fingertips, wearing athletic attire in deep magenta and burgundy that contrasts warmly against her skin. Her dark hair pulls back tightly, and her focused expression conveys intense concentration. Behind her, additional runners appear smaller, suggesting spatial depth, their silhouettes in similar warm rose and coral tones. Moving to the right page, the composition continues with a dynamic hurdler suspended mid-jump within a golden rectangular frame, her body arched gracefully over an implied barrier. Below her, more runners traverse striped track lanes in crimson and cream, their forms suggesting motion through streaked gestures. The background throughout depicts stadium architecture and crowd formations in gradated purples and roses, creating atmospheric depth like a sunset-lit arena. Surrounding the open book, additional closed copies display yellow covers featuring silhouetted athletic figures in various poses including tennis players and gymnasts, rendered in darker warm tones against the bright lemon yellow ground. A circular medallion visible at the bottom suggests an embossed seal or award insignia. The overall temperature feels warm like afternoon sunlight, with colors reminiscent of ripe peaches, golden honey, and summer roses creating an energizing and celebratory atmosphere.
