Abstract

In the following internship, different forms of illustration were developed to assertively communicate texts related to the Universidad Santo Tomas magazine: Sol de Aquino. This demonstrates the interest and need to communicate social and educational issues within and outside the institution. A historical overview of the magazine was conducted, including its importance within the institution, its relevance to the educational community, and the reasons for serving in this capacity. After this process, a reading of the 2023 issue No. 11 was conducted. In it, some texts were found that generate awareness about the events that have emerged in recent years, including the 2020 pandemic, the challenges and alternatives faced by the educational community of Universidad Santo Tomas, and how, from the reader's perspective, we might be able to identify various social needs that pose challenges for the country. Each illustration is developed based on a visual reference, which allows for exploring different techniques related to the main idea of ​​the text and, through this, capturing what the writer wanted to communicate in a less literal way.
