My poster depicts people losing their identity and seeking identity
Today, human trafficking is a cruelty that should be ashamed of humanity. It is necessary to raise awareness about this persecution. While you are looking at this poster today, about 2 more people fell victim to human trafficking. Hope this poster will be a voice for all the victims whose lives have lived in captivity.
Sometimes you have to take a closer look to see (the truth).
This Design aims to fight against the awful and sinister act done by HUMANS, in the dark world of Human Trafficking, that deliberately tags another HUMAN “for sale” .
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 main figure of this work is a falling woman with a sales label. Trafficked people, especially women, are like fallen angels, falling into the abyss of despair.
The image is the representation of a fence, a barrier to delimit spaces. In his forms the artist created a narrative sequence, using the repetition of the obstacle icon, to form a hand with the gesture that symbolizes freedom.
I drew a picture of a woman in a cage for sale by hand. This is an insult to women, and it’s not right. So I appeal to you to protect women. People are not commodities, they are not for sale
This work has been prepared to draw attention to human trafficking.
