Sara Deck creates poster art for Luca Guadagnino's Suspiria
Canadian artist and illustrator Sara Deck designed the poster for Luca Guadagnino's film Suspiria, released in Italian cinemas on January 1, 2019 by Videa. The film, presented at the 75th Venice Film Festival and already released in the US, is a reinterpretation of Dario Argento's 1977 cult horror classic. Deck's artwork features a dominant red color palette, reflecting the film's use of various red shades from deep burgundy to vibrant blood red. The poster shows a woman with upturned palms and veiled face, which Deck explains represents Madame Blanc's unsettling tension and hidden intentions. Deck, a horror genre fan, created multiple proposals for the distribution company. The interview was conducted by Margherita Bordino for Artribune.
