@COVIDESIGNERS

A group of Brazilian designers launched an incredible initiative. They are designing posters with the themes related to this moment of the pandemic of COVID-19 and publishing the arts on instagram @covidesigners . Another good initiative for our #obomnaquarentena (good initiatives in quarentine) hashtag.

The project will happen in two phases. In this first one, they will publish the arts in the virtual gallery on instagram, which already has beautiful contents and that are really an inspiration and a delight for us to pass through this difficult moment more lightly.

The second phase will be the printing of the posters and sale with income donated to affected groups.

The posters will be printed using risography. They explain that it is a technique that uses a digital duplicating printer and that, through stencil printing, produces runs with vibrant colors and semi-handcrafted results. It must look very beautiful!

See below some arts that had already been published and the participants designers:

“My House, My Home. The best place in the world now is here” (free translation)
“Home is where our heart lives” (free translation)
“Keep Standing” (free translation)
“To stay at home” (free translation)
“House in which I became world” (free translation)
“Stay at home” (free translation)

I will continue to follow up to purchase a poster when sales start and to see the update of the pieces, which are really beautiful!
