Seize the Awkward

Honored to be one of the artists invited to collaborate with Droga5 with an illustration for their new Ad Council campaign called Seize the Awkward.
Mental health shouldn't be a taboo: the more everyone talks about it, the more comfortable it gets to address. I know it's an awkward conversation, but by reaching out to a friend in need and creating a safe space, you can be saving someone's life.
For this illustration I created two versions of the same poster to show that there's always a bright side behind the darkness. The same thing happens when you ask someone if they're ok and help them see through their issues.
I definitely recommend taking a look at the campaign's website www.seizetheawkward.org for more informations and tips on how to address mental health.
