Hero’s Journey

Movie inspired poster for the beautiful Yimou Zhang film, Hero

Martial arts have played a weird and significant role in my childhood. The art, honor, and passion have been an inspiration for me as I grew up and something that others put time and effort in to master. It was a craft and a skill.

In honor of one of the great martial arts films, one that truly brings the art to martial art, I created a poster which represented the movies deeper themes. The movie is always in flux yet the protagonist is as calm as a river. At one moment falling like leaves, the next standing confidently as his enemies surround him and his death is imminent. The hero, whose name is Nameless, should be a metaphor for all of us, a Hero because he was able to admit he may have been wrong, sacrifice himself for something greater.

The soldiers you see are actual Chinese People's Liberation Army soldiers, the real deal.

The lake was placid for only two hours at 10am each day. It had to be completely calm.
