Generally I spread posters on the streets by myself. The wall you see in the picture, I do not feel conformable to go to especially alone, even during the day. We went there together as a group with students from Creative Expression class at the University of Namibia. Together we installed around hundred posters on a popular wall in the middle of Windhoek. I made a plan for the design and students became part of the site-specific work through installation and discussion. It was a truly wonderful event. What is important to me is to offer an alternative view on what a simple sheet can communicate. Critical design!

Articles for these posters were collected from different sources both from the Helsingin Sanomat in Finland and the Namibian press. The posters dealt with walking in the city of Windhoek and opinions about equality in Namibia from Finland.
