The most awarded Croatian designer Davor Bruketa, with his take on tolerance, made this illustration as part of The Tolerance Project Inc.

With the world being so unequal and amidst a tolerance crisis, spreading awareness has never been more important. This is why Davor Bruketa, co-founder, CCO, and Head of Design at Croatia-based creative agency Bruketa&Zinic&Grey joined the Tolerance Project Inc. by designing a poster on his interpretation of tolerance. His design was motivated by people who march under the Christian cross against minority rights despite Christ’s values of empathy, tolerance, and connection. To date, the Tolerance Project Inc. has put on 139 exhibitions in 40 countries worldwide since it was launched by Mirko Ilić in 2017. Please read more below.
