Bad Beans Zine was first presented to the public at London South Bank University Digital Design Final Degree Show. The audience's response was thrilling and the controversial topic explored in this project led to an interesting array of engaging conversations.
This project's main objective is to aid the fight for a more balanced and intersectional society. The name BadBeans is a play on the word human being - sound similiar to bean - reflecting the messafe of the zine: we are all human 'beans' with bad behavious.
Bad Beans Zine highlights the social need to acknowledge societal toxic mentalities and behaviours in order to turn the 'bad beans' into good and progressive 'human beings'.
The creative process behind Bad Beans Zine allowed me to explore and develop my skillset in graphic design, illustation and editorial work, working with Adobe software such as Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.
