"Anonimo" is an experimental graphic design project that explores the idea of identity and self-recognition, challenging our ability to identify ourselves when viewed through the lens of simple radiographs and ultrasounds. Created using over 100 radiographs and ultrasounds, the project deconstructs the human form into abstract visuals, stripping away familiar markers of individuality.
The project culminates in a beautifully designed fanzine accompanied by a striking poster. Both serve as tangible extensions of the concept, inviting viewers to reflect on the abstract nature of identity and the boundaries of self-awareness. Through minimalist yet powerful visuals, "Anonimo" transforms medical imagery into a profound artistic narrative.
Each of the over 100 images used in the project was meticulously curated, ensuring that every visual element aligns with the overarching narrative.
Central to the project is the recurring orange circle, which stands out boldly against the stark black-and-white medical imagery. This graphic detail serves as a deliberate representation of the inability to identify oneself. Its placement varies across images, emphasizing different parts of the human form while symbolizing a universal disconnection between our physical essence and our sense of self. The orange circle acts as a focal point, underscoring the project's intent to provoke reflection on the abstract and often elusive nature of identity.
The journey of creating "Anonimo" was as intense as it was emotional. Each image carries a story, as I personally engaged with the individuals who shared their radiographs and ultrasounds. These interactions often revealed raw and powerful narratives—stories of vulnerability, resilience, and deeply personal experiences. These moments added a profound layer of meaning to the project, transforming it into not only an artistic exploration but also a deeply human one.
The project culminates in a fanzine and a poster, both serving as vessels for these layered emotions and reflections. "Anonimo" is not just a visual experiment but a poignant tribute to the human experience, turning abstraction into a meditation on identity, fragility, and self-awareness.
