Equality Makes the Difference
The fundamental idea behind this project was to imagine a movement that would be advocating for equal opportunities. I started imagining an identity, a logo and a tagline for it playing with the equal/unequal sign created by two E letters and two strong colors like yellow and dark grey. Name, address, and phone number of my fictional front-runner are palindromes, so they can be read both ways.
The tagline Equality makes the Difference came up during some discussion with a group I’m part of called Inequality Matters, a Fort Collins based group of concerned individuals committed to providing information and promoting dialogue about economic and political inequalities and their implications locally, nationally and globally. The planks I focused on for this movement are: gender equality, LGBT rights, equal opportunity, and the right to vote. I decided to play with the typography trying to deliver a strong message for each poster tying all together through color and the tagline “Equality makes the difference”.

The Revolutionary Conservative Party
The US presidential election of 2012 gave me the opportunity, and the inspiration, to talk about politics and human rights through graphic design. I come from a communication background, and the message in my work has a very important place. I wanted to create a political Party that would contradict its design through its political agenda, using real quotes and real planks from politicians active (and running) during the 2012 US Presidential Campaign; a black or white Party, where everything can be read as the contrary of everything else. That is why I called this fictional party The Revolutionary Conservative Party. The name of my front-runner is Hermann (from Hermann Wilhelm Göring, a German politician, military leader, and leading member of the Nazist Party) and his last name is Bakunin (from Mikhail Alexandrovich Bakunin, the Russian revolutionary, philosopher, and theorist of collectivist anarchism). The planks of this party are extremely conservative, but the design resembles the old Soviet Union’s or Chinese propaganda poster from the 1940s.
Morti di CIE – Storie di Ordinaria Detenzione Amministrativa
Una coraggiosa inchiesta sui migranti morti in detenzione amministrativa nei CIE di Stato. Studiosi ed esperti delle tematiche del diritto dell’immigrazione, antropologi, sociologi, associazioni, fotografi, videomakers, giornalisti, grafici e fumettisti, tutti impegnati nell’attività per la tutela dei diritti umani, hanno deciso di mettere a disposizione di questo progetto le loro conoscenze ed esperienze per raccontare, attraverso le immagini e le parole, le verità dimenticate o nascoste.
“Cause of Death: CIE (Centers for Identification and Expulsion) – Stories of ordinary administrative detention”
A team is composed by human rights activists with a range of different competences ranging from Immigration Law experts and researchers, anthropologists, sociologists, members of civil society associations, photographers, video makers, journalists, graphic designers and cartoonists. We have decided to put together our knowledge and expertise to report, through images and words, forgotten and hidden truths. We have teamed up to realize this inquiry -investing our strengths and resources – because we believe that only through cooperation between individuals with different backgrounds it is possible to make independent information.
