I designed this poster because empathy seems to be in short supply these days. It is important to not just put yourself in someone else's shoes. but to also question the assumptions that we walk around with on a daily basis. Our lives can be so insular, even with social media opening us up to a myriad of potential viewpoints, we often choose to surround ourselves with echo chambers. We need to explore the realm outside of the comfortable viewpoints that match our own. We just need to talk to and understand others. I am convinced this is the key to ending all the world's problems.
This poster features Augmented Reality (AR). That is, it was designed to not only look great sitting still, but it also animates. You can view the animation by downloading the free Artivive app on your phone. Then, in the app, simply point your phone at the poster and watch it come to life.
This animated poster was selected as a finalist in Poster Stellars 4th Intercontinental Poster Competition for the United States on July 30, 2024.
