My Postsecret

The 'secret' in my postcard was that some famous, beautiful celebrity secretly hates herself. I displayed this information pretty explicitly, instead of providing a clue or implicit way of stating it for an audience to deduce. I chose to include two different 'girly' colors, pink and purple, as well as a full heart and a broken heart drawing. I also write in cursive, the effect of all these manipulations being that the card seemed sweet at first glance, and sort of sickly sweet after you read it, especially with the broken heart. I wanted to portray this persona as vulnerable and down-to-earth, so that the average audience member could maybe feel some satisfaction from reading it, knowing how big of a celebrity this person is.
