The Trump Baby blimp is an attempt to communicate with the US president "in a language he understands", says the graphic designer behind the project in this exclusive Dezeen movie.

The over-sized balloon, which flew above Parliament Square in London this morning to protest Donald Trump's visit to the UK, sees the US President reimagined as a baby, with small hands clutching a mobile phone.

Matt Bonner, who works as a graphic designer for activist groups and designed the inflatable, says that depicting Trump in this way was an attempt to get under the president's skin.

"It seemed like an appropriate symbol of someone of his temperament," Bonner explains in the video, which Dezeen shot this morning at Parliament Square Gardens in London.
"We're using this language of mockery, because this is a language that he understands," says Bonner. "So we're giving him a taste of his own medicine."
