YOU CAN SAVE LIFES | Portugal

A phase

The poster depicts an act of violence, by means of two arms, one pulling the other aggressively. The objective to show the attitude of violence and control that one person has over the other in situations of human trafficking.
At the top of the poster it is the quote “trust no shadows after dark” from the song “Shadows After Dark” reminding us not to trust everyone because some people are not what they show. At the bottom, an appeal in the hope of creating awareness and get people to inform themselves and others about this huge issue.

Gamble with lives | Hong Kong

A phase

Human trafficking is the trade of humans for various purposes which could be, forced labor, commercial sexual exploitation, or others. People are no longer seen as humans, but as goods, as objects to trade, exchange and collect.
The poster “Gamble with Lives” wants to visualize how traffickers lose the perception of a person as a human being, distilled to only a profitable game. As a metaphor, the life of a person loses any importance, any value and becomes part of a gambling game. Their souls imprinted on the cards lead to the ultimate goal, enrich their traffickers.

Hope of the Shadow | Malaysia

A phase

The receipt in the artwork represents the results of the girl being traded. She sits on the ground shivering while the shadow of a pair of hands stretches out from her back with a vague hope. Her outstretched “hand” tries to tear the receipt, but in the end, it is in vain. It expresses the victim’s inner pain and struggles. I hope that this artwork can be a medium to spread the message that lets everyone pay attention to the people around us. These incidents are not far from us, maybe we will become their “hands”.
