FIX IT
Poster
→ Spring 2023
→ Inkjet on universal bond
→ 24″ by 36″
I designed a poster that used visual rhetorical devices to bring awareness to the same social issue of transgender rights in America. To bring awareness to the issue of transgender care, this poster employs visual pun to enforce a feeling of uncomfort on the viewer and change how they may view their position of the social topic at hand.
This print poster features the head-turning imagery of a female breast growing from the face of a man as if it were a pimple. The use of visual pun creates a metaphor for the viewer, assuming that they are cisgender, to understand what it may feel like to be a transgender person who suffers from chronic gender dysphoria. This imagery, combined with the phrase “you would want to fix it, too” implies that medical transition is oftentimes needed to resolve the feelings caused by gender dysphoria. This poster is aimed towards a non-trans audience to call upon cisgender individuals to support the need for gender-affirming care. The caption and QR code featured on the poster provides a call to action so that its audience may make a change about such a prevalent social and political issue.
The QR code on the poster links to a linktr.ee (a customizable landing page website) I created that shares information relating to transgender rights in America. That page is accessible by clicking here.
