This poster has been created by layering different shaped mirrors covered in soap on top of each other to have a direct reflection of myself. By bending my laptop screen towards the keyboard the screen has been used to reflect my chosen type considering my design principles onto the mirror. The final outcome has been achieved by editing these outcomes in Photoshop.
