Ulysses / 10
Posters for James Joyce

Personal Project

Creative Idea & Design: Kato Trofimova

2025

This project began with a book I’ve loved (and feared) for years: Ulysses by James Joyce. It’s wild, impossible, rhythmic, and brilliant—a novel that resists logic and embraces language as sensation. I wanted to respond not with illustration, but with abstraction using the tools I love most: colour, digital form, and typography.

Each poster is an emotional and structural echo of the text: a quote, a feeling, a loop, a silence. This is a tribute to literary chaos, visual rhythm, and the kind of design that doesn’t always make sense at first glance—maybe that’s the point.
