Taken | United States

In my design, I putted together the different interpretations that would define our awareness of the global situation. The content of my art has always revolved around my current interests as I am commonly drawing fictional subjects out of an anime, manga, or a graphic novel. By combining the fictional subjects of shadows lurking within the background and an anime character struggling to free themselves from harm, it really weaves together the story to elucidate our awareness of the global situation.

Trade | Turkey

In the globalizing World, all people around the World can contact one another and immigrate to a different place to have a better life. But sometimes they cannot achieve the life they dreamed. These people are taken, sold and forced to work in inappropriate jobs. For this reason I used a supermarket trolley because there is a human trade in this World and people are sold without their will.

At A Moment’s Notice | United States

For this design, I wanted to emphasize to the viewer that anyone can be abducted if they are not aware of their surroundings. So I decided the best way to depict that was to show the shadow of an individual being dragged away as the main body continues to move forward. This is to insinuate that someone can be abducted at a moment’s notice. And utilizing a mix of traditional and digital mediums I was able to create a piece that is quite simple, and that I feel educates the viewers to stay safe and be cautious of sketchy areas.
