Grey Threads
‘Grey Threads’ is a series of posters, which aims to inform graphic designers about the social disintegration that elderly people with vision impairments encounter in Singapore. The concepts envisioned in these posters are creatively appealing for a graphic designer; but by reflective viewing one would think that the connotation following these im¬ages are meant to be anything, but beautiful. The outcome aims to evoke an urgency of response from the designer in order for them to realize the weakening eye conditions that the elderly people with vision impairments have to deal with. These posters are created, to bring about empathy in graphic designers in a manner that aims to question if, designing for the elderly is a priority or just a marginal means for them.
