Can a work of art ever truly be "subversive" in an environment where people are so determined to miss the point

Context: By itself I would say red, but when encountering over-pic situations maybe yellow does better? Blue was also suggested by an outside opinion, which really made me wonder

I set a personal goal of limiting USA news in my life; but, inevitably, I always stumble upon something, and every single time it’s something along the lines of 'BREAKING NEWS: it is now legal to hunt poor people for sport'

"Sky Above Clouds IV" (1965) by Georgia O'Keeffe ✨ This is the largest painting O'Keeffe ever made. It spans 8 x 24 feet. And she did it at age 70. O'Keeffe was inspired by her experiences riding in airplanes during the 1950s. #art #artsky #painting #fineart #womensart #okeeffe #artisforliving
A panoramic view of row after row of abstracted clouds, looking almost like a sea of almost-pill-shaped icebergs floating on a blue ocean, stretching to a distant horizon. In the sky, a light pastel orange glow traces the horizon and fades upward into a soft blue.

For me, personality develops by trying over and over again. The problem is nowadays this process has become hellish. I've struggled with perfectionism my whole life, and of course, it has affected me as a designer too. Especially with social media and being exposed to so much content.

So, I dreaded the idea of falling into the stock pic syndrome, because, in a case like this, it was clear that going that route was gonna bring stereotyping, leaving people out of the representation and other bad things. That's why I decided to create custom illustrations instead of using pics.

I hate, hate, hate the UX "trend" of filling every single moment of silence with noise so the user doesn't dare to form a thought. I want to choose something to watch, not to have an anxiety attack because of the overstimulation

For the tertiary button, I tend to use it for more gentle CTA moments. I find it less aggressive than the primary and secondary buttons #design #designsky #designsystems #ux #ui #buttons
An example of tertiary button use. There is a middle black text that says "Hot UX in your area". Below there is a tertiary text only button that reads "let's talk". The text of the tertiary button is underlined and blue

This is a clear example of how useful it is to ensure clarity in complex elements like a two button dialogue #design #designsky #designsystems #ux #ui #buttons
An example of a two button dialogue. There is a center text that says "Do you accept to have your data sold to the highest bidder?. Below, two buttons. Left one is filled and blue and says "I accept". Right one is a blue outline emptied and says in blue text "Wait, what?"

a minimal flat illustration of a somewhat abstract person in a roof layered repeatedly in different places/positions within the room, as if to evoke the same person shown doing different things within the same room. Positions include at computer/desk, drinking water, laying on bed, eating food ctying, going to bathroom, praying

Artemisia Gentileschi, detail of Corisca and the Satyr, 1636–37. Oil on canvas, 61 × 825/8 in. (155 × 210 cm). Private collection, Naples.
A detail of a painting showing that nymph Corisca from Battista Guarini’s Il Pastor Fido, in a flowing ochre dress with creamy white sleeves, offset by a crimson cloak whose classical billowing form is tempered with a persuasive realism. Corisca gazes back with a smirk at the flustered satyr, not visible in this detail, who sits on the ground
