Lolita Poster
These projects were completed for a time-based graphic design course at Northeastern University. There were various assignments given to us throughout the semester, but my favorite project was designing a poster for a novel of our choosing. A process book of all my work from this course is also available in the form of a process book here.
The theme I chose to develop from the initial draft was the idea of innocence being tampered with. I wanted to create a visualization of this young girls childhood being stripped away from her. I thought of the lollipop and placing it in a sexual manner to make the audience uncomfortable upon discovery of what it is actually supposed to resemble and represent. I discovered from my earlier drafts that I had to play around with the colors and some features of the poster as not to distract the viewer. I eventually added elements such as the belly ring and chain in order to play around with my message.
