Himalayas type landscape
I love hiking in the mountains. The Himalayas range is a mighty landscape for me.
I was largely thinking of using typography to pay homage to such a powerful landscape.
This is a Letterpress Poster displaying the highest 14 eight thousand summits in the Himalayas range according to their position and altitude. The poster was printed on natural rice paper handmade in Nepal. The work has been printed using both wood types (primarily) and metal lead types.

Format: 760 x 480 mm

Printed in February 2023 at Animales de Lorca Letterpress, Valencia, Spain.
