Detailing the specifications for each model of the first generation of the Ford Mustang, this poster combines era appropriate features, such as textures and patterns, with modern elements to create an engaging composition.
Created in response to the #metoo social media campaign*, this poster is designed to be placed in public settings to prominently display statistics surrounding sexual crimes across America. The poster creates a simplistic, easily digestible visual representation of the coast to coast issue by comparing data from Washington State with that from New York City.
*The #metoo social median campaign occurred in late 2017 and brought awareness to sexual assault and sexual harassment in America when victims of sexual crimes, mainly women, broke their silence and rallied together in support of one another.
Based off the poem, The Secret in the Mirror by Alberto Rios*, this symbol set was created from key symbols found in the poem.
*The Secret in the Mirror
Alberto Ríos, 1952
The mirror is dirty from the detritus of dailiness—
I look in the mirror and am freckled.
A week out from being cleaned, maybe two, maybe more,
The Milky Way shows itself in the secret silver,
This star chart in my own bathroom,
Aglow not in darkness but with the lights on,
Everything suddenly so clear.
It is not smear I am looking at, but galaxies.
It is not toothpaste and water spots—
When I look in the mirror, it is writing and numbers,
Musical notes, 1s and 0s, Morse-like codes, runes.
I am looking over into the other side,
And over there, whoever they are, it turns out
They look a lot like me. Like me, but freckled.

A redesign of an existing map and designed for a welcome center, this map is simplistic and clear with the trails of Red River Gorge, Kentucky being the focal point.
