Rigoletto:  Verdi’s Rigoletto is a tragic story of jealousy, lust, and revenge. The antagonistic jester, Rigoletto, is cursed after a joke goes too far in the court of the villainous Duke. Despite his best efforts to protect his beloved daughter, Rigoletto is unable to keep her safe from the outside world and the curse’s fulfillment. He most certainly will not have the last laugh. 

I was inspired by the dark nature of the Rigoletto story and historical jester costumes which used geometric shapes and primary colors. We have applied this concept in a modern way, which is reflected in the design of the acrylic bag.
