As someone that is primarily surrounded by a young demographic, I chose to focus on the topic of anxiety and address the stigma of anxiety. I learned the generations in college, generation Z and Millennials, have far higher rates of anxiety than any other generation. Because of this, I intentionally made the viewer experience a symptom that can happen from anxiety, dizziness, when looking at the posters. The viewer is then able to experience, to some capacity, what someone with anxiety may be going through. From the text I included, I force a dialogue between those that are skeptical of anxiety and those that experience it firsthand. I made this a series to show the range of people that struggle with anxiety; they can be any race, gender, ethnicity, or class. Anxiety is not someone making an excuse or overreacting for attention. It affects both mind and body.
