Curious Child
Curious Child is a series of postcard designs created to normalize appearance-altering conditions,
by Moomin Temple-Smees.
I want to show these conditions in a lighthearted, pure context to force people to be exposed to what they may have learnt to turn away from, and to show the humanity of the people beneath the exteriors.
The series is influenced by vintage illustrations of children, particularly those by Ilse Wender Lungershausen, as well as the art of Mark Ryden.
As postcards, the designs can be displayed or posted, creating a means for disseminating the images and information about the conditions in a positive way.
