#afFEMation

September 04, 2017

afFEMation.com is an interactive website that profiles women who have made significant contributions to Australian graphic design since 1960. Some you might know, some you might not.

Women are flooding out of the visual communication education pipelines in Australia, but these graduates have few visible female role models to connect with. afFEMation.com has changed this and brings together twenty-four very diverse women who rock in the visual communication world.

Explore this interactive space to see how these women are networked and connected.
Discover portraits, videoed interviews, galleries of work and brief biographies.
Share the profiles on social media to create heroes of women in Australian graphic design.

View the interview with Michaela Webb, Creative Director of Studio Round.

Other women profiled include: Annette Harcus, Lynda Warner, Rita Siow, Lisa Grocott, Abra Remphrey, Dianna Wells, Sandy Cull, Sue Allnutt, Fiona Sweet, Gemma O'Brien, Jenny Grigg, Jessie Stanley, Kat Macleod, Simone Elder, Chloe Quigley, Kate Owen, Laura Cornhill, Rosanna Di Risio, Suzy Tuxen, Zoe Pollitt, Natasha Hasemer, Fiona Leeming and Maree Coote.
