concept
The agitator provokes public debate in order to shape our personal opinion. Homosexuality is a topic that allows different opinions to be discussed and debated. Therefore, it was used as the main concept for this project. This project was based on this reason. In the end, two posters were developed.
the heart is an involuntary organ
-
The first design brings the fact that the heart is an involuntary organ and for this reason it does not choose who to like. Also, a real human heart images is used to remind the viewers that despite any sexuality choise, all hearts look and function in the same way.

ceci n'est pas adn
-
The second option raises the question "is homosexuality a genetic defect?”. To illustate, Magritte’s quote “ceci n'est pas une pipe” (“this is not a pipe”) is used to provoke discussion.
