According to statistics 50% of the international human trafficking population are
children. Children are kidnapped, stolen, forcibly robbed, lured, traded
Every child is an angel. The missing child is like an angel with broken wings,
falling into endless darkness.
The poster depicts a bloodied prisoner chain belonging to a victim, who is implied to be nearby but out of the frame. The blood from the victim is trickling to the middle of the poster, where the victim has written the words “stolen people, stolen dreams” in their blood. It is up to the viewer to decide the fate of the victim, and if they were dragged away from the scene. Similarly to many unfortunate victims of human trafficking, all that remains is the broken pieces to tell us their story.
The work takes the bar code as the basic element, isomorphism with the contour of the human body, and expresses the concept of the commercialization of population. Beating notes and rich colors remind people that this beautiful world, danger still exists!
This poster is a poster of someone crying into a bucket with type that says, “stop child labor.”
Children make up roughly 50 percent of all people being trafficked. The white crowd shows the purity and peacefulness of life without trafficking. The two children in black are cut out or missing from the crowd, showing they are being trafficked. Without them, we humans can not be whole. We need to end trafficking to bring back the children and people being used and fill the void that their absence leaves behind.
The shadow after the darkness is hanging over the heart of every mother who is unfortunately trafficked. In the darkness, it seems that there are countless pairs of men’s hands coming to them. They feel desperate and struggle hard. They were forced to scream and cry for help. Only the tears and the distant cry were muffled in the silent night.
Where we can not see,darkness is creeping down.
My design is about a young girl who is involved in human trafficking reaching out to somebody and that somebody is also reaching out to help her.
