Doritos Solid Black 2023 is a limited edition food packaging design created for a snack brand initiative that supports Black innovators and changemakers. The annual series was expanded into a collaboration platform that highlights Black artists. The artwork was made by Mz. Icar, an anonymous interdisciplinary arts collective composed mainly of Black women. The artwork was then extended into a complete visual identity system, applying its palette and graphics to the packaging, an influencer kit and merchandise. The kit takes a pyramid shape inspired by the brand triangle.

Unique Properties
As part of SOLID BLACK®, our ongoing DORITOS® initiative that supports Black innovators and changemakers, we’ve scaled our annual limited edition series into a collaboration-driven platform that amplifies Black artists. For the third DORITOS® SOLID BLACK® series, we commissioned Mz. Icar, an anonymous interdisciplinary arts collective composed primarily of Black women, to create the artwork for our limited-edition packaging.
Inspiration
We then extended the artwork by Mz. Icar to a complete visual identity system that brought the piece’s palette and graphics to packaging design, an influencer kit, and merchandise. The iconic DORITOS® triangle inspired the kit’s pyramid shape and its luxe stationery that highlights how each of our 2023 Changemakers is igniting positive change and making a bold social impact.
