“Unappropriated Beauty“ is a poster ad campaign tackling the issue of cultural appropriation in a non-accusatory, educational way. These adverts are size-compatible to fit in different settings, including bus shelters, billboards, mobile devices, and magazines. The goal of this project is to educate the consumers of appropriative media so that they are better equipped to decide for themselves what is and what is not cultural appropriation, and therefore lowering the tolerance for appropriation being applauded in the media.
The second largest country in the world just decriminalized homosexuality.

But we can set the course for the future.” This is such a victory for the lgbtq+ community within India and all over the world. 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
