A speculative poster exploring themes of authoritarianism and compliance through the lens of Margaret Atwood's dystopian narrative.

Concept

This visual commentary examines the erosion of individual freedom through state-sanctioned oppression. The composition juxtaposes architectural monumentalism with human subjugation, creating a stark meditation on power, control, and resistance.

Design Approach

The piece employs high-contrast silhouettes and brutalist typography to evoke a sense of oppressive grandeur. The limited color palette—deep crimson against grayscale—symbolizes both violence and submission. The Monument becomes a symbol of authoritarian dominance, while rows of figures suggest mass conformity.
