COVOGUE-19

  • Miriam Demir

I made this project as part of my second year studies in university. The brief was requesting of me to create a publication of collected data and challenge the classic book format. My final outcome is an "inside-out" magazine, which means that instead of having the cover out and content - in, my publication has an article and content page as the front and back covers, meanwhile you can find the covers inside. The idea behind this project is to show a "before & after" Coronavirus versions of life and the toxicity of the media circus surrounding the COVID-19 situation, which lead to excessive panic, mental health issues and people not taking the virus seriously. As during the time period I was working on this project we were in lockdown, I wanted my work to address the ongoing situation somehow and find the more humorous and light side of an otherwise really scary global topic, while keeping the informative and serious tone of voice.
