Abstract: My work explores the intersection of design, activism, and social change, using visual language as a tool to amplify urgent political and humanitarian messages. This exhibition focuses on the impact of student-led protests in Serbia, reflecting the power of collective action and the role of design in mobilizing movements. Drawing inspiration from protest graphics, I employ bold typography, stark contrasts, and urgent color schemes particularly red and black to evoke resistance, urgency, and remembrance. My posters and visual narratives are designed to be more than just images; they are calls to action, meant to be carried in the streets, shared across platforms, and embedded in public consciousness. The pieces in this exhibition reference slogans and symbols from the protests, reflecting themes of accountability, transparency, and anti-corruption efforts. They serve as both documentation and provocation, urging viewers to engage critically with the realities of systemic injustice. By translating the energy of protest into design, I aim to highlight the power of visual storytelling in activism. These works are not just statements; they are an invitation to remember, to resist, and to demand change.
