Netflix Deaf U


Commissioned by Netflix Creative Team, I created a master keyart and series of ideas which features on their global streaming platform across millions of devices and screens. The core idea pays homage to beautiful & diverse set of handshapes found in American Sign Language, each handshape is paired with brush strokes which works as a loose abstraction of one sign (out of tens and hundreds of possibilities) that you’d use with each handshape.



Ravi lives and works in Naarm (Melbourne, Australia), on lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people. Ravi acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of this land and pays respects to Elders – past, present and emerging. Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people have nurtured this land, its waterways and community for more than 65,000 years and continue to do so today. Ravi pays the rent and you should too.

Ravi is currently open to a select amount of projects starting from January 2025. If you’re interested in collaborating or simply want to get in touch, get in touch ︎︎︎ ravi@ravivasavan.com
