International_Womens_Day

RAW


"Raw"

Offset Poster
February 2006

This piece was commissioned by the Women's Building for their annual 2006 International Women's Day celebration. Founded in 1971, the Women's Building is a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, multi-service center for women and girls.

The theme for the 2006 International Women's Day production was "RAW", as in: authentic, real, powerful, strong, courageous, exposed, vulnerable - peeling away layers to expose the truest self.

The event explored identity and image from every angle - cultural, physical, commercial, historical, spiritual... What is a woman's authentic self? What does the entertainment/media tell women about beauty? What are the positive and negative influences that have shaped women's identity and self-image? How is our image different from what is inside of us? What contradictions do we all walk around with?

I documented the creative poster behind this piece. You can read about it by clicking here.
