Supergraphics of Tampa Bay




Post-Modernism was an era beginning in the 1970s that allowed artists to find their passion and pursue it. The movement itself fi represented in many different mediums and is recognizable as the highlighted graphic design used today. 
One design ideology of this movement was that style was content. Adhering to this ideology, developed the supergraphic which is an extremely sized pictograph that integrates itself to the environment.

More and more companies are aiming at the Supergraphic field seeing that in any snapchat, Instagram, or Facebook post, a recognizable image is behind it. Artistic and advertising purposes are fulfilled with the use of Post-Modern supergraphics
