Poster design for an exhibition on Galician urban art made by women. In 1984, Seor, a sixteen-year-old girl, created the first documented graffiti in Galicia. She was inspired by the film Beat Street. The exhibition showcased historical works and materials from Galician female urban artists from 1984 to 2023.

The poster is essentially typographic, highlighting the year in the exhibition title and using Sixten – the typeface’s first use. Some of its alternate character styles are activated in the subtitle. Small caps and lowercase appear also in the information text block on the bottom left corner.

The exhibition was curated by Amabel González Troncoso and Clara Rodríguez Cordeiro and took place at the Auditorio de Galicia in Santiago de Compostela.
