Pure Queerness Poster Series
My passion for typography, colors, and illustration is something that has developed over time and daily practice with casual exercises, where I simply try to be myself without following a brief or specific requirement. Casual graphics are an escape from everyday tasks, something that helps me relax and relieve a bit of stress.
Over time and with personal exploration, I wanted to do a project that would help me understand, know and share things that generate visibility and recognition for those communities that exist and that have made the world -a little- kinder. Some time ago I read a phrase that said "Pride is important because probably tonight someone thinks that he would be better dead than being her or himself" and it made me think of all those days when I felt that I did not fit in and that perhaps what I was feeling was wrong.Years later, I understand that it is okay to feel different and that many people have fought before me because I can feel good being me, because I can feel good loving who I love. That is why Pure Queerness arises, an act of identity and expression that brings together a series of posters where illustration, typography and the desire to carry out a message of inclusion, acceptance and respect are combined.
Pride is not just a "party" as many people call it. It is a protest where space is opened to various forms of expression.This personal project is an exhibition of posters that pay tribute to various characters in the LGBTQIA community but beyond my process as part of it and how through what I like to do, I like to tell who I am and what I think.
