(FEAR) POSTER COLLECTION
SS2021 - SELF EXPRESSION OF PRESSURE & ANXIETY

I made those during the covid pandemic. When staying at home, my heart kept beating crazily. It told me that "So, you are now slower than many one else; cuz you are doing nothing." It's the fact that, I did nothing during last year, nothing for myself, or to improve. 

It was hard to say, but YES, anxieties were there, peer pressure played around and I was so afraid of being disappeared, not by the covid, but by being a loser. Then, some posters were made; some stories were told; some people had come; some had gone. Now, I love myself and what I am doing, more than ever.​​​​​​​
{01 - Solitude)
---
The first FEAR, was about the silent world around me. When the pandemic came back, we  stayed at home more regularly, spent more time inside, and online. I did make this on a day that I was so in miss of my 2019 - where I found my true happiness - design.
{02 - Races)
---
The second FEAR came when I was surfing Instagram. It was pride & hurt at a same time, when I found that now people are so talent, especially young ones. I did realize that me, myself was nothing in this chaos & fast developing world. Life is, just like a race, and I was a clumsy boy who felt like being left behind.
{03 - High)
---
The third FEAR, was actually a collaboration between me and Novyxong. He asked me to create a poster that could actually answer the question "What do you feel when you are high?". I meant, with me, 'high' was actually a status - of myself being not humble. It was like when you hide yourself in your own jungle, looking out at the world with your little eyes.​​​​​​​
{04 - Strength)
---
On some pandemic days, I realized that I was not so naive, mentally strong & perspicacious like the past days. I missed the time of being told by my mother, some stories about being super hero. Yes, inside me, there is always a child exists; however, that child is now, not as confident and happy, like he used to be.​​​​​​​
{05 - Replacement)
---
I saw myself in the mirror and recognize that after few weeks of pandemic quarantine, I have changed a lot. So, there is a question - Will someone replace me? or eventually, I will become someone different?​​​​​​​
Then, I did print out some in limited risograph prints, with the production of @wedogood
Thank you for watching
