GOTTA FAG !

Hi, I am Eugenia, and I have recently given up smoking, Yet my final year, print based project, is inspired by the graphics on 'Cigarette' packaging ? Being surrounded by cigarette imagery every day is a 'tad' irritating but I'm surviving (so far).

The piece of work I have chosen is taken from that collection I call it 'Coat of Arms' and is taken from the Embassy Mild cigarette packet. During this project I have been investigating why cigarettes have such an obvious connection with royalty, Regal, Kingsize, Super Kings, Sovereign etc. I am including this 'Royal' phenomenon in my work which will give it more depth.

I love designing and have a great weakness for the Avante Garde, my previous project was inspired by medical imagery and X-rays. As a wild Welsh woman I'd like to based in Wales for a little while, but if the right offer came along then the woolly Welsh sheep can move over I'd jump at the chance to work for a design company.... Any where in the world.

In September I shall begin a P.G.C.E. F.E at the University of Wales, I want to give myself a secure foundation just in case the unpredictable Design industry doesn't recognise my talent. But if you've liked this design and you'd like to see any more of my work, Cigarette or X-ray inspired, then you can get in contact with me at the following address,
