This year James Marsh created the poster for the 34th annual Transmusical Festival in Rennes, France. The festival ran from December 5th to the 9th and the whole town was taken over by the multicultural event with music venues scattered throughout the city featuring musicians from all over the world performing everything from classical to rock.
For the past 33 years it has always been a French artist providing imagery for the festival. This is the first year they have looked outside and consequently James was the first British artist to be chosen to create the Festival branding.
