Existence is Unhappiness

20

Existence Is Unhappiness is a collaboratively designed fold-out poster created for the twelfth issue of the underground countercultural magazine Oz. The work exemplifies late-1960s experimental graphic design through its dense line work, layered collage, and interplay of text and imagery, reflecting both the psychedelic aesthetic and the politically irreverent tone of the period’s underground press.
