What Makes Stickers Popular?

Today, society as a whole is more accepting of people and identities than in previous eras where conformity was valued. This dynamic change between people and society is what drives the success and popularity behind stickers. Young adults are proud of their identity; they want to let other people know about the type of person they are, and stickers are an easy way to achieve this goal. Stickers supporting certain movements can get individuals to think about their personal beliefs and be open to discussions, new opinions, and ideas.  With this ideology in mind, my goal was to create a series of stickers representing the species in this research.

 

Using Adobe Fresco, I created five stickers and linked them to this website through a QR code which gives detailed information on ​this research. The free stickers were placed in several ​stores around Philadelphia in order to inform people of all ages and backgrounds about this conservation issue.  I have made the stickers free, as my goal is not to make a profit, but rather inform people of Philly of this climate related issue. My hope is that by sharing this knowledge through fun and popular materials, people will become excited to engage in conservation efforts and help find ways to mediate climate related issues.
