Common Underground - Collaboration Project

Foreign designers were asked to choose a word in which their country was paired with and design a poster of their views of that word towards the US. United State designers were asked to choose a country and it’s corresponding word and design a poster that depicted their opinion of the two (the word and the country chosen).

        Thebasis of the project is to show insight as to how others perceiveus andhow we perceive others, hopefully this will catch someone’s attentionand make them realize that what we need in order to change the coursein which we are headed are those positive words that only make thingsright and focus on the positive instead of the negative.

Exhibitions of the posters and book were held in Miami art gallery CIFO and also at Miami's New World School of the Arts in conjunction with AIGA: Miami. A book was published of the project with all of the participating artist photos and bios. Check out the website and purchase a book. www.cmnunderground.com
