The task was to design an eye-catching poster for Cosmic Art Enterprises’ art show in spring 2000. The well-known New York subway map was altered by replacing New York City with a scientific illustration of male genitals. While the conception took only one hour of desperate staring at a map in a deserted New York Subway station at 4 a.m., finishing the design in an accurate way required a lot more patience.
