SANTIAGO BRUNI
My name is Santiago Bruni, and I’m an Art Director and poster illustrator based in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I studied Advertising at Miami Ad School, where I was nominated for awards like D&AD New Blood and won the Top Dogs Awards. I’ve worked with brands like MUBI, Fernet 1882, AMC, Netflix, and E!, and I’m currently an artist at Hero Complex Gallery. As a huge pop culture fan, I bring passion and storytelling into every project I create.
Blue Velvet was one of the first David Lynch films I saw during the pandemic after finishing The Return. I really liked it at the time but a re-watch is long overdo.
I always say that Blue Velvet is the perfect test if you aren’t sure if Twin Peaks is for you.
I wanted to make a poster focused on the ear, but I also wanted to play around with the colors a bit. I originally did a steelbook cover with this poster, but I always knew it was meant to be a book cover in my head. So after a couple of weeks I went on to do just that.
