When it comes to the iconic Pixar characters, it’s easy to recognize each one simply based on their most recognizable features. This is the idea that Wonchan Lee uses when creating these wonderfully playful posters to depict each character.
In a minimalist fashion, the posters range from the eyes of Wall-E to the hilarious chef hat, nose and whiskers of the famous Ratatouille. If you've ever heard the theory that you can take out the middle letters of a word (keeping the first and last) and it will still be recognizable, then it’s apparent why this concept works. As watchers and fans of these famous Pixar characters, associations are created in order to represent its image, and that is what’s cleverly illustrated with these posters.
