Parasite Screen Print by Rory Kurtz x Mondo

Parasite Movie Poster Screen Print by Rory Kurtz x Mondo

Later today, Mondo will be releasing this killer new Parasite movie poster by artist Rory Kurtz! As Mondo explained, “Parasite is an incredibly relevant, defining, and boundary-breaking film by a director whom we completely adore. The film is universally recognized as brilliant, and it lives up to the hype. Couple that with Rory Kurtz, one of the best poster illustrators currently working, and the result pretty much breaks our brains.”

“There’s a lot to unpack in Bong Joon Ho’s Parasite. It asks many questions and doesn’t give us comforting answers. For the poster, I wanted to capture that sense of discomfort and unease. A seemingly picture-perfect moment between the happily rich Parks completely oblivious to what’s unfolding around them, and the Kim family relegated to the shadows struggling with their own complex feelings toward such wealth and privilege. It’s a timely film, groundbreaking for a handful of reasons, and difficult to define. My hope is the poster art is just as mesmerizing and ambiguous as the film itself.” – Rory Kurtz
