Be: The Collective
poster design, 2021.
The Collective means a more robust convergence and collaboration. After the Covid-19 Pandemic, exchanges globally have halted, and they have slammed the gates shut for each other’s safety. Historical experience shows that this situation will end soon, but the world will suffer from the fears and scars of the pandemic.
We, as designers, must now prepare for a new type of meeting and exchange that will occur after the pandemic. Again, our mission is to create a solid convergence and collaboration, which is The Collective. Moreover, this theme is the core message of this exhibition.
Industry, product, advertising, universal, and all related fields need to focus more on human-centred messages and connect each other while establishing a notion for the safety of the human community. The future we must lead is.
The Collective and The 11th Asia Graphic Design Triennale 2021 will present a new communication means in the design field.
