For this assignment, I had to think pretty long and hard about which word I wanted to use. Then, I was cleaning out some stuff, and found my old Lucky Brand hoop earrings, which are in a peace sign. At this point, I just finished my design safari, and was thinking about design elements (in particular metaphors and symbols) so I thought, “Oh, hey, I can use the word ‘Peace!’” So, I used Polyvore, one of my favourite collage sites to rearrange the letters into a peace sign. I think it’s cool how our mind can take certain symbols and associate it with a single word, phrase, or meaning.
