In 2017, while at TAFE, we had to design a poster for a Refugee Week poster competition. My design was based on the idea that Australia is made up of all different kinds of people, some who were born here, and some who weren’t. So, I made the shape of Australia using books propped up against each other. I then edited all the spines, so that they all said “refugee” in different languages.
My poster was one of 70 posters displayed from primary to tertiary students at the competition exhibition. It was also one of 10 posters to be displayed at the World Humanitarian Day lunch held by the United Nations Association of Australia (South Australian Branch).
