"WEEPIES" is a statement - a feminine one. From Sartre's idea of "perfect moment", depicted in his Nausea novel, and its association with the image of the women in movies disserted in Debora Holdestein's arcticle for Jum Cut Magazine, here, are presented a series of different examples which depict the fictional woman. These characters, mainly offer us a vision of the woman submissive to a male figure. Based on a personal connection, these association have the goal to unite in a single view, the recognition of patterns of women's image representation, and altogether serve as a metaphor for the concept of stereotype. A critic methapor, which ambition is enhance the negative power of ideology that, more than producing global pictures, turns them into desirable and common accepted, distorted realities.I like the contrast between the colours of the papers, and the handwritten typography which I find is often a lot more effective than chosen typefaces.
However, I feel like the pink colour used in the book is stereotypically feminine - this is quite unoriginal and should be broken if possible in graphic design.
