ProtestPosters

self-organized

The series of protest posters is based on the well-known campaign Slovenija, moja dežela, a nostalgic element from Slovene culture. Featuring satirical inscriptions, proverbs, and sayings, they summed up the position of a large portion of Slovenian citizens and served as protest banners during the Friday protests in 2020.
