Fuse

This was our Final Year University project, in which we were given the freedom to define our own brief. The focus was on exploring an unfamiliar topic through in-depth research and conversations with specialists to gain a deeper understanding. My goal was to create a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant piece of work—one that could raise awareness and potentially make a meaningful impact. I deliberately chose a subject that is often overlooked, aiming to shed light on an issue that deserves greater attention. So I chose the Foster Care System, and this experiential campaign aims to raise awareness of the foster care system and encourage more people to consider becoming foster carers. The concept centres around a walk-through installation featuring three rooms, each representing a stage in a foster child's emotional journey. The exterior is covered in colourful photo frames depicting diverse families, aiming to show that anyone can foster—and to help visitors see themselves reflected in the message. The installation acts as both a visual experience and an informative touchpoint, prompting visitors to reflect on the impact of fostering and explore how they can get involved.
