Stuart Ford created this poster to protest against the fee cap rises and general cost of education in the UK. I like the fist imagery as it's emotive and has connotations of uprising, strength and revolution, all perfect for the cause. However I feel that the colour scheme makes the type slightly difficult to read and doesn't convey the right emotions. The 'Knowledge is power' text is also too difficult to read.
Without doubt the most successful protest symbol in a long time, the Je Suis Charlie design is beautifully simple and evocative. Reminiscent of the 'I am Spartacus' speech, it allows anybody to immediately show their support
