How can art, like Picasso’s Guernica, be used to creatively express the impact of societal conflict and promote activism?
How can art, like Picasso’s Guernica, be used to creatively express the impact of societal conflict and promote activism?
Art like Picasso’s Guernica shows the emotional and mental impact of war and conflict using symbols, abstract shapes, and strong visuals that speak to people everywhere. Guernica shows the horror of a town being bombed during the Spanish Civil War, with broken, scared-looking figures and black-and-white colors. Instead of just telling the story, the painting helps people really feel the fear and chaos of what happened.

The Guernica Project:
For our Guernica project, we picked domestic violence to highlight how serious and damaging this issue is. We took inspiration from Picasso’s Guernica and used dark colors and twisted, broken shapes to show the pain and fear that victims experience. The chaos in the painting reflects the emotional and physical scars left by abuse, while the distorted figures symbolize how domestic violence can tear people apart. Through this piece, we want to raise awareness, get people talking, and remind everyone that this isn’t just a personal problem, it’s something we all need to care about and address.

"The Power of Art: Depicting Conflict and Resistance Through Guernica" - Science
For this project, I chose the emotion anxiety and used a figure from Picasso’s Guernica to help show that feeling. The twisted, expressive shape of the figure reminded me of how anxiety feels—overwhelming and intense. To show what’s happening inside the body during anxiety, I added chemical structures like adrenaline, cortisol, dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine, which are all connected to stress and emotions. These chemicals are part of the body’s reaction when we feel anxious, so combining them with the art helped me show both the emotional and physical sides of anxiety.

Propaganda Poster
Propaganda Poster
For my propaganda poster, I focused on domestic violence to help raise awareness and show how serious the issue is. I used strong images and a bold slogan to grab attention and make people think about how abuse affects victims. The dark colors and symbols, like a broken heart or reaching hand, show both the pain and the hope for help. I also included a helpline to remind people that support is available and encourage them to speak up or take action.
Domestic violence PSA Video
Domestic violence PSA Video
For my project, I created a PSA video about domestic violence to raise awareness and encourage people to speak out. The video uses emotional visuals, voice-over, and powerful messages to show the impact of abuse and highlight the importance of support. I included facts, signs to look out for, and a helpline to let viewers know that help is available and no one has to face it alone.
