Julita Ziara

Julita Ziara is a graphic designer whose practice is rooted in research led and critical design methodologies. Her work explores the intersections between visual communication, feminism, and social justice, using design as a tool for inquiry and critique. Through editorial design, experimental typography, and archival research, she investigates how systems of power shape the ways knowledge is produced, recorded, and represented.

Her current project examines medical misogyny, focusing on how women’s bodies and pain have historically been misunderstood, dismissed, or rendered invisible within medical discourse. Drawing on feminist theory, medical archives, personal testimonies, and contemporary research, the project interrogates the assumption that medical knowledge is objective and neutral. By exposing the tensions between lived experience and official records, Julita’s practice seeks to challenge dominant narratives and develop new visual languages that make overlooked experiences visible, positioning graphic design as a form of social engagement and critical reflection.
