Description

‘Connection’ is a project to raise awareness on dynamics within youth romantic relationships, focusing on behaviours & conflicts between partners. It attempts to encourage youth to love better, as research identified that unhealthy, or abusive relationship behaviours persist among youth. Patterns formed continue into adulthood & so educating youth can help in healthy self development. The project’s purpose is to encourage self reflection on their own relationships to encourage positive changes.
There are three components to this project: interactive web-based game, postcards & stickers. The website would enable visitors to live out stories of relationships based on true experiences of their peers. Their decisions would determine the outcome of their relationship. Since love has been misinterpreted in relationships, the postcards and stickers will show a warped concept of this ‘love’ as well. They can be scanned through the Artivive app to reveal a hidden, more toxic message.
