dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: This thesis aims to merge storytelling with visual communication to present the unique and inspiring stories of LGBTQ individuals, revealing their journeys of forming acquired identities despite societal rejection and oppression. By leveraging graphic design tools and techniques such as collaging, layouts, photography, editorial design, and video editing, the goal is to visualize and narrate identities and experiences in a way that fosters understanding and connection within the LGBTQ community and among allies. The research methodology includes qualitative methods like unstructured interviews, mapping exercises, and a joint visual direction/mood board approach to empower participants and tailor the research to their personal experiences. Through this process, the thesis seeks to represent and resist inherited identities while embracing and rebuilding acquired ones. Keywords: LGBTQ, storytelling, visual communication, graphic design, acquired identity, unstructured interviews, mapping exercise, visual direction, mood board, empowermenten
