Short description

Poster Stellars is calling for entries to the 6th Intercontinental Poster Competition United States 2026.

The theme for 2026 edition is: A F T E R E A R T H.

Step into a future where Earth continues its journey—long after humanity has altered, abandoned, or transformed it. After Earth invites designers to imagine what remains when the familiar world we know today evolves beyond human presence, control, or understanding.

What stories does the planet tell when cities fall silent, nature reclaims its ground, or new forms of life emerge from the remnants of civilization? What visions unfold when Earth becomes a memory, a warning, or a rebirth? This theme challenges you to explore the echoes of humanity and the possibilities that arise in its absence.

Imagine that you awaken in a time where Earth exists after us. How has the planet healed, adapted, or mutated? Have artificial intelligences inherited our legacy, or has nature rewritten its own rules? Through this lens, your poster becomes a window into speculative futures—utopian, dystopian, or beautifully unknown.

Join Poster Stellars on this thought-provoking exploration of life beyond human dominance, where imagination redefines survival, coexistence, and evolution. After Earth is not an ending—it is a transformation. Dare to visualize the planet’s next chapter and let your design speak for a future shaped by consequence, resilience, and possibility.
