The SA. (Super Anti-Authoritarian) project is a visual project that aims to create a superhero who is fundamentally opposed to the beliefs of an authoritarian personality. It was created through a democratic selection of body parts designed by me, including arms, legs, head, and torso (often inspired by genetic defects). The modules are presented in photo albums on the Super Anti-Authoritarian's Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/superantyautorytar/), which are selected by the most likes. This creates a visually diverse character, emphasizing diversity. The avatar is a symbol of peace, freedom, and tolerance. The Super Anti-Authoritarian will oppose a personality that demonstrates a strong predisposition to accepting and sharing anti-democratic beliefs, reflected in conservative views and attitudes, as well as in perceiving the world through the prism of stereotypes and formulaic, "rigid" reasoning. A finished photo of an avatar created on a Facebook page becomes a graffiti template, a sticker. Every visitor to the site can use the resulting design to represent themselves in public spaces. I want to emphasize the reach of this superhero, which exists between the real and online worlds. The presence of the avatar (a symbol of equality) both online and in public spaces would constitute a protest and commentary on phenomena such as the spread of stereotypes, aggression, and intolerance. Democratically elected S.A. was presented on June 16, 2016, as a hologram in a fire-fighting box located in the disused FSO (Passenger Car Factory) in Warsaw during a postgraduate exhibition.
