The Piece
This original vintage poster was created for the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City. The design features the iconic "Mexico 68" logotype with the Olympic rings integrated into the typography.

The visual language combines Op Art influences with traditional Mexican folk art aesthetics, symbolizing peace and international unity.
