card game + poster design made while researching the Organization of Solidarity with the Peoples of Asia, Africa and Latin America (OSPAAAL). the game focuses on historical events that took place during the years in which the OSPAAAL were active, both political and cultural, and asks the player to sort them into a timeline. (I don’t take credit for this idea at all – my sister and I played a version of this called Timelines growing up!)
printable version of the game + rules coming soon
poster designs based on the work of the OSPAAAL. you can find an archive of their gorgeous poster work here.
this was a project I did in the fall of 2024 for my History of Graphic Design class. I did extensive research into the history of the OSPAAAL, a Cuban political organization whose stated purpose was to fight globalization and imperialism.
the OSPAAAL has since closed their headquarters (I believe the last artwork they made was a poster of Obama & Vladimir Putin) but their work is still incredibly relevant today.
