Das Prinzip des Bösen

graphic design / December 2016

A cover design for Das Prinzip des »Bösen« (German for The Concept of “Evil”) by Daniel Smeritschnig, published by proLIBRIS VerlagsgesmbH. On the book: “How does it happen that seemingly peaceful and outwardly life-affirming people become ice-cold murderers? Can it be that in all of us there is at least a spark of the potential to become a perpetrator of violence, which at some point ignites the fire when external circumstances and events coincide? Can we all become murderers? It is a comprehensive riddle that can never be fully solved. But we can get within inches of the answer.”
