This poster design, from a larger body of work called "Ongoing Matter," mobilizes political engagement with The Mueller Report. The goal of this project is to make The Mueller Report more accessible to a wider audience, and subsequently facilitate increased engagement with its findings, illuminating the major threats to democracy, as the average American citizen may not be aware of the gravity, significance, or substance of the information contained within its pages. The legacy of Russian's interference in the 2016 US election, the prevalence of social media manipulation, and the serious ramifications of the political situation that has unfolded since 2016 has major echoes in 2020 and beyond. It is more important than ever that the average American understands what the design of government documents can affect and how to interpret their role in a democratic nation.
