ABOUT
This project uses a
set of four friendly
“Menopause
Monsters” to
encourage
conversation
and challenge
misconceptions
surrounding
menopause, such as
it affecting only cis
women over 40.
Each monster is a
personification of
typical menopause
symptoms.
For this project,
one of the selfdirected
outcomes
was the creation
of four collectable
menopause monster
fact cards.
Another outcome
created was an
illustrated logo,
which would appear
on Refinery29’s
website. Through
clicking on this logo
the user would be
taken to relevant
resources surrounding
menopause.
The other outcomes included an interactive bathroom installation with several different features.
