Sophomore Studio - Project 3: Narrative Wallpaper

36x60, Adobe Illustrator
Prompt: Design a wallpaper that conveys a message addressing a contemporary topic. This message should be told through pattern. Include a medallion, freize pattern, field of repeat pattern, drawn element, and de-saturated color scheme.  The final result should be visually compelling as a specialty wallpaper as well as an interesting narrative.

Narrative: Domestic Abuse - The majority of domestic violence instances are unreported, often due to a threatening abuser and a scared and controlled victim. This poster encourages the victims to speak out, tell the authorities, and leave a dangerous situation, whether it be with a family member or long-term partner.
