Does Donald Trump Really Speak for You?

Deconstruction:

• Medium: Digital
• Materials: 1s & 0s and pixels
• Subject Matter: The subject of this image is the woman on the right, and seeks to explain how Donald Trump, and his misogynistic comments, do not speak for the majority of Americans, especially women and minorities.
• Aesthetic Qualities: This image falls more on the sublime side, but definitely does not aim to be beautiful. The lack of color and the expressionless face of the woman is less comforting and more sublime.
• Gesture: The woman is standing expressionless. Her gesture shows that she is not comfortable, and may be feeling angry or upset. 
• Lighting: The whiteness of the picture makes the image appear very bright, and the darker tones of the text stand out to to provide contrast to the background.
• Dimension: This image is proportionate. The woman and the text take up equal space.
• Location: Since this image is paid for by a Super PAC and for the presidential campaign, the image may be located on social media, billboards, and may be a frozen image from a tv ad.
• Display: This image has very little going on (one woman + one question) but manages to hit you hard because you realize that the president-elect literally represents you and wow that sucks.

Response:
This image forced me to think about Donald Trump (ugh, ew) and all of the comments he made toward/about women in the election. It makes you sad because you realize that unfortunately, that guy is speaking on behalf of American women for the next four years, and will undoubtedly say things that humiliate women.
