Second Summer of Love Retro Poster | Acid House Rave Wall Art

This piece celebrates the Second Summer of Love, the cultural explosion of house music and ecstasy-fuelled unity that swept the UK between 1988 and 1990. Rooted in the acid house movement, it marked the birth of modern rave culture — where music, drugs, and freedom of expression fused to create an entirely new youth identity. Smiley faces became the defining symbol of the movement, representing joy, togetherness, and rebellion against the mainstream. In this retro-futurist reimagining, dancers rise from a glowing vortex of sound and energy, framed by neon grids and cosmic motifs. The records, symbols, and city skyline capture the clash between the underground rave scene and urban life, while the cosmic palette evokes the psychedelic transcendence that defined the era. This artwork pays homage to the moment when a generation declared: music is liberation.
