"In Like Flint," I’m guessing it was made as a poster for the film, but, in any case, it uses bold colors and graphic shapes to create a playful visual experience. There's something deeply satisfying about the way Peak combines these elements. Take the woman in yellow: her dress and boots are these simple, flat shapes, but they manage to convey a sense of movement and energy. And then there's that wavy orange ribbon swirling around the figures, it's almost like an abstract expressionist gesture thrown into the middle of this slick, commercial image. The whole thing feels like a mashup of different styles and approaches, which is what makes it so compelling. This playful sensibility reminds me of the work of David Hockney, who also had a knack for blending high and low culture in his art. Both artists seem to revel in the joy of artmaking, embracing ambiguity and multiple interpretations over any fixed meaning.
