Womxn: An alternative term for the English language word Women to explicitly include non-cisgender women.
For my BA Graphic Design FMP, I wanted to investigate and visually explore the problems womxn and gender
non-conforming femmes face online, a platform that many would believe is safe for womxn when the real world still is not. Taking this digital topic and highlighting issues that may be unheard of/deserve more awareness, I wanted each smaller project to be represented in different analogue forms. This includes printmaking, greetings cards, typewriter experimentation, spray-painting and bookmaking. My aim was to show all audiences, whatever gender identity, that these issues exist and that hopefully exploring these smaller topics (Romantic Miscommunication, Incel Culture and Revenge Porn) it would help educate others further.

Both analogue and digital initial experimentation post-researching the subject of Nonconsensual Pornography.
Handwritten type rendered in Illustrator to be reprinted, traced and cut into spray paint stencils.
Digitally visualising how I want the prints to look and composing a potential campaign using the prints prior to making them.
