Antibiotic Apocalypse
The US Centre for Disease and Control has speculated that in 2050, the number of deaths due to antibiotic resistance is estimated to reach 10 million. Antibiotic Apocalypse is a project that intends to generate a broader awareness of the major health threat of antibiotic resistance and the development of superbugs. This cross-disciplinary project works with complex scientific visual imagery from a designers perspective using textile manipulations. The visual imagery displayed aims to confront the current problem of antibiotic resistance and ultimately educate audiences to make positive changes in their lives.
