Build Your Own Garden - Michigan Medicine Mental Health Posters

Undergraduate
In a collaboration with Michigan Medicine, I designed a series of six posters centered on mental health, creatively exploring the intersection of art and well-being. This project was an opportunity to stretch my creative skills while learning the intricacies of effective communication and collaboration with a real-world client. The concept of 'Build Your Own Garden' revolves around the idea that each person is representative of a flower, while the garden represents a diverse community of people. Just as gardens flourish with a variety of blooms, a community thrives through the inclusion of individuals from all walks of life.
