My design is based on a bar code with the eyes of a victim of human trafficking. The red lines represent the blood falling from the eyes in a way showing the hardship these victims go through.
Sometimes you have to take a closer look to see (the truth).
This piece seeks to bring awareness to the plight of victims of human trafficking by providing a call to action for the community. The slogan “Cut it Off’ is the result of research surrounding the routes by which victims are trafficked and the communities they come from. The imagery of a breaking chain is culturally synonymous with freedom where I come from. Choosing to integrate the hand-print symbolism of the Stop Human Trafficking campaign shows the viewer a clear path towards accomplishing the call to action: “Cut It Off”.
I showed on my poster that human trafficking is ignored
Human trafficking is most commonly trafficked for sexual slavery, forced labor (labor exploitation) or sexual exploitation for traffickers or others. Those who do this trade get rich this way. This poster draws attention to this situation.
MY PURPOSE IN THIS STUDY IS TO SHOW THAT THE END OF THE ROAD WHICH PEOPLE IMAGINE WITH BOTH MATERIAL AND MORAL LOSSES IS MY FLIGHT
I wanted the poster to visually cut the ties between oppressor and human trafficking survivors and victims.
Millions of children around the world are happily playing war games with cheap plastic toys, manufactured in a mass prodcution process.
In my work I have chosen to present a toy soldier, taken from a popular and innocent children game.
This toy soldier represent thousands of children which are serving as soldiers in armed conflicts around the world.
“These boys and girls, some as young as 8 years old, serve in government forces and armed opposition groups” (Human Rights Watch.org).
