Ynez Mexia
Poster Design
Inspired by the trailblazing Mexican American botanist Ynes Mexia, this poster celebrates her legacy and her impact as a woman in science. Each design element connects back to her work: the dots echo her detailed documentation and the 500 plant specimens named for her, while the background color reflects the tones of her dried samples. Reimagined through a modern graphic style, these choices highlight the forward-thinking spirit she embodied and bring her legacy into a contemporary light.
