Truth and Lies: A Poster Series by Justin Barber

Little white lies turned into sixteen different minimalist graphic art posters by Justin Barber.

"This humorous poster series takes some of the most common, everyday lies we tell ourselves and hear from others, and bluntly translates them into the unequivocal truth. By visually representing the difference in what we often say but secretly mean, Truth and Lies uncovers the inane conversational nuances that reveal paradoxical dichotomies in our otherwise ordinary life. In other words, this is what you say, but (this is what you mean) - and we all know it." - Justin Barber

The artwork for Beck's most recent album, 'The Information', took the form of a collaboration between 20 leading graphic artists curated by London design team Big Active and Beck himself. The album package is sold featuring a blank cover, each CD containing one of four different sticker sheets encouraging the listener to create their own unique artwork in a way that is highly reflective of Beck's idiosyncratic approach to his music.
