Communities Not Cages is a powerful advocacy campaign aimed at raising awareness about mass incarceration and the urgent need for criminal justice reform. This project was made possible through FY Eye’s Creative Campaign Accelerator, in collaboration with WPP, providing a platform to amplify voices advocating for systemic change. Through bold visual storytelling and impactful design, the campaign highlights the human cost of incarceration and calls for policies that prioritize rehabilitation and community support over punitive measures. My role in this project involved crafting compelling animations and visuals that communicate the campaign’s message in a way that is both emotionally resonant and visually striking, helping to engage a broader audience in the fight for justice.

Emruz Festival 2024 is a multidisciplinary cultural event dedicated to amplifying the voices of Iranian and Afghan women, inspired by the “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement that emerged in Iran and resonated globally in 2022. This year’s festival highlights the struggles and triumphs of these women through three powerful music and theater performances, each exploring themes of freedom, connection, and deep listening.

As the Art Director and Designer, I developed the festival’s visual identity and campaign, drawing inspiration from the resilience and artistry of Persian women across the Iranian Plateau. The visual elements are deeply rooted in traditional Iranian art, particularly Gol va Morgh (Flower and Bird) and Tazhib (Persian Illumination), symbolizing themes of beauty, fragility, and endurance.

The intricate patterns of Tazhib reflect the interwoven stories of these women, while Gol va Morgh serves as a poetic metaphor for their strength and grace amidst adversity. Through a blend of historical motifs and contemporary design, the campaign bridges past and present, visually embodying the ongoing struggle for freedom and self-expression.
