This project was designed to engage the community at Seattle University to advocate for different policies regarding student homelessness, eviction reform, and affordable housing in Washington State. Along with the other project assistant, I thought up a way for the number of advocacy postcards to be displayed in a way that also alluded to the spirit of support for those who experience housing instability and loss. We decided on a house-like structure to symbolize the intrinsic importance of the home and the foundation it provides for a person’s success and wellbeing. The postcards utilize the human symbol of the hand and connect it to the home through its combination with household belongings.
After its display at Housing and Homelessness Advocacy Day, we took down the postcards and delivered them to send a message to the chair of the Ways & Means Committee and the Speaker of the House.
The medium of this project was Adobe Illustrator & Adobe Draw.
