I decided to create a poster focusing on the increased Asian American hate fueled by the Coronavirus pandemic. The poster mimics a tarot card that represents reflecting. The card reads “The Virus” showing the hate that is the actual virus spreading. The hand silences the crying Asian woman with the American flag symbolism to show the hate fueled by a leader who endorsed Asian hate by calling the virus the “Kung Flu” and “Chinese Virus.” The poster inhabits a muted patriotic color scheme mixed with Chinese elements of Yin Yang symbol and Chinese lanterns. Along with this, constellations are also incorporated to show the celestial side of the tarot card.
