The Design

About Breath Série de Cartazes

Breath é uma série de cartazes criada para promover a consciencialização sobre saúde pública durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Os cartazes recorrem a formas positivas e negativas, combinando o perfil lateral de um rosto com o contorno de uma máscara. Os contornos partilhados sugerem uma relação simbiótica entre a respiração e a proteção. Outros elementos, como o céu, a cidade, o coração e um batimento cardíaco, alargam o tema à comunidade e à união. Os grafismos são desenhados à mão e trabalhados com software de edição de imagem. Cada cartaz mede 700 por 1000 milímetros.
