About Against Suicide 宣傳海報

《拒絕自殺》係一張旨在打破抑鬱同自殺念頭禁忌嘅社會宣傳海報。海報以大幅矢量插畫呈現一連串細微誘因所引發嘅連鎖反應,同時展示自殺過程嘅各個階段,以及可能嘅支援方式。呢張海報設計嚟俾廣場、交通站等公共場所展示,俾觀眾有充裕時間細閱當中嘅眾多細節。整體風格低調沉靜,旨在令受影響嘅人感受到被理解,同時降低佢哋尋求協助嘅抗拒心理。海報可製作成大型招貼、傳單或報紙印刷版本。

Tags: Socialgraphic, Illustration, Vectorillustration, Prevention, Suicide, Care, Depressions, #AgainstSuicide
Production Technology: The illustration was drawn with vectors.
Design Challenge: The hardest part war the taboo of the suicide topic.
Research: The big poster is full of details, full of little things and interactions, like the little triggers and phases of a suicidal process. Triggers they want to be found and they everybody knows. Those affected feel more understood and the inconspicuous design means that they are less reluctant to seek help.
Inspiration: Thoughts of suicide can affect anyone, at any time in life. In these difficult times, isolation and social pressures are increasing problems. On the other hand, Depressions are still a taboo and a stigma. Those affected often remain silent until the thoughts start to cycle and in the worst case, the can turn into a suicidal chain reaction. Suicide and depressions are a taboo topic.
Project Duration: The project idea startet in Germany, but it can be an international prevention.
Operation Flow: The large poster in the waiting area and in public places is intended to break the taboo of depressions and invite to discuss – everyone knows one of these.
