United with Ukraine: Designers for Peace. Protest Posters by ©2022 Balbusso Twins
Marty Pedersen of Graphis inc and Kit Hinrichs have created a poster design competition to support the Ukrainian people. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to humanitarian aid (specifically, the José Andres World Central Kitchen and International Relief Teams).
Our two posters have been honored with a GRAPHIC SILVER AWARD and Honorable Mention in the Graphis international Designers for Peace competition. Thanks to the whole jury @graphis_inc
It has always been our dream to design posters! Getting this award from such amazing artists and designers around the world encourages us to continue!
Here all the winners:
#STOPWAR - SILVER AWARD
We have created a peaceful, multicultural, inclusive march: environmentalists, students, pacifists, minority rights movements, rainbow people ..... to say stop the war. In all wars the real victims are the civilians and the poorest. . We used a mixed technique, traditional tools and digital.

#PEACENOWAR - HONORABLE MENTION
We wish to express our opposition to the war and our closeness to the Ukrainian people. Women and children become targets in all wars. We have created a symbolic image, the typical handkerchief with red flowers, worn by Ukrainian women, represents the state of suffering and wounds caused by war. The beautiful flowers bleed. We used a mixed technique, traditional tools, collage and digital: tempera, thread, gauze, torn paper, photoshop.
