ECHOES OF IDENTITY
Echoes of Identity is a publication design exploring how audio storytelling challenges traditional perceptions of race, gender, and identity. Through bold typography, vibrant colour palettes, and experimental image manipulation, I created a visually immersive publication that reflects the separation of voice from physical appearance and the role of podcasts in amplifying marginalised voices. The final outcome combines editorial design and conceptual imagery to communicate themes of representation, inclusion,
and imagination.

Through a combination of motion blur, gradient mapping, and colour experimentation in Photoshop, I transformed carefully selected images into abstract portraits that reflect the themes explored within each spread. Balancing conceptual storytelling with bold visual impact, the imagery became a defining feature of the publication's
visual language.
