WOMAN — A Feminist Zine

A feminist zine idealized as the second project of Editorial Design, a subject of my Communication Design course in the University of Lisbon. It came about due to my enthusiasm and interest for the feminist movement and the social implications of being a woman in the current world.

Editorial Design

2015

The first intent was to expose my view on feminism, based in the collected content: pictures, quotes and graphic compositions that somehow explain women’s struggles and realities. The second intent was to question. Are women more vulnerable now than they were in the past few decades? Or are women simply more aware that in a changing world, with the possibility of pursuing equal rights, they should not give up fighting for them?

WOMAN is composed by two main categories: woman and issues, each category divided in four and seven chapters, accordingly. In the end, there is a playlist of videos and music that I felt would complement this zine. You’re probably wondering why the usage of html elements in typography. I somehow found in these elements the idea of several parts, and codes that give shape to a whole. the same way a woman is the construction of all different sides.
