London-based designer Berke Yazicioglu created a series of drawings shaped by music, ballet, and the visual charge of Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps.

The series channels the tension around Nijinsky's choreography through dense ornament, Art Nouveau curves, Japanese print-like patterning, and a palette where red meets electric blue.
