Our Mighty Misleaders

Personal project, 2018-19
In light of current events worldwide, but specially related to the 2018 Brazilian elections, I made this poster triad as an elegy to the death of truth and the right for privacy. President-elect Jair Bolsonaro based his campaign on hoaxes and fear mongering, using his thousands of bots and followers to spread misinformation and turn the people against its peers. After he was elected, politicians from his party went to China to negotiate implementing their facial recognition system in Brazil, and São Paul0's governor João Dória approved strict and unconstitutional state laws against protesters, leading Brazil into a growing authoritarian abyss.
