Infinite Good posters

 

Information design

Screen printing

Goal:
Design abstract posters that represent information around rates of malaria infection to offer people a meaningful piece of artwork. Represent the information in a beautiful way to change the negative information into a positive fundraiser, paying it forward to help the people of Malawi.

Outcome:
Over 100 posters have been sold to date, which has raised enough funds to purchase protective nets for over half the population in the Kudoku village of Malawi.

Date: 2007–08

 
The first poster is an abstract infographic showing that the population of Malawi doesn't have access to protective nets.
