Reclaim the streets
Poster competition
This poster was created for a competition organised by 3 Second Gallery, based on the theme Reclaim the Streets. The project began with an exploration of the growing similarities between cities, particularly the influence of large corporations and international retail chains such as Starbucks and H&M. As these brands increasingly dominate urban spaces, cities risk losing their individuality and unique identities. While experimenting with photography, I found inspiration in the board game Monopoly, which became a visual metaphor for corporate dominance and the commercialisation of public space. By combining these ideas, the poster challenges the growing influence of corporations on our cities and questions who really owns the streets. The design was shortlisted for the final selection and exhibited in The Hague.
