Ghost in the Shell, cut no. 341, poster

The last three images show the poster mounted on a panel. See our blog post for more information on this product option. We also created a guide on how to set up our custom made picture hooks.

In an interview with Stefan Riekeles in January 2023 Hiromasa Ogura recalled the creation of this artwork:

“It was the rainy season. When we entered shops, the air conditioning was blasting, creating a stark contrast with the humid outdoors. We were documenting with film, not realizing that this would cause a lens-flare effect. But it was great. Very atmospheric. I realized that this was something to use. The images look almost wet. Buildings in Hong Kong always had exhaust fans, dripping with water, which mixed with the rain, everything combining in a soup below. Those photographs captured all of that, with light blurring beautifully. I thought it was cool and thought about how to incorporate it to get that feeling. The main palette is subdued, with bright colors used to emphasize focal points.”
