Exposing the fecal danger in our picturesque beaches with Carina Bonse

Carina Bonse is an art director and social entrepreneur whose final year graduation project at the Red & Yellow School looked at creating awareness around the amount of raw human waste that ends up in oceans around Cape Town. She and her colleagues collected data regarding the sewage systems that continuously discharge sewage runoff directly into the sea and designed an informative campaign around it. The designer presented a series of aerial photos taken of Cape Town’s coasts and chillingly pointed out that what might seem to be a shimmery azure sandbank amidst the deep blue is in actual fact a deposit of sewage assimilating into the seawater. Carina "The Wizard" Bonse is an Art Direction and Design graduate from Red & Yellow, South Africa, who won Loerie Awards in her first, second and third years.
