Human Trafficking | China
Where we can not see,darkness is creeping down.
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).
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.
I wanted the poster to visually cut the ties between oppressor and human trafficking survivors and victims.
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.
Human traffickers prey on people who are poor, isolated and vulnerable. It Iis not only more and more that educated, intelligent, well-groomed people are becoming victims of human trafficking.
However, individuals are vulnerable to trafficking not only because of conditions in their countries of origin. The allure of opportunity, the constant demand for cheap goods and services, and the expectation of a secure income drive people into potentially dangerous situations where they are at risk of exploitation.
With this poster I wanted to create awareness of the child labour part of human trafficking. Children are being lured away from their families and homes by tempting offers of money and stability. When the children arrive they only find relentless labour and poor working conditions. My poster tries to visualise the children who are bound to their labour (in this case a sewing machine in a sweatshop) and are unable to go to their families.
“PACKAGE” is a poster that emulate a regular package. The message is about showing what is going on now. Somehow the trafficking operations are more known. It is so hard to believe but it is a reality. It is a way of create awareness of this global crisis. Typography Design playing with the package angles displays Stop Human Trafficking.
Women, Men and Children are trapped in fear and explotation. In the poster, victims escaping
through a prison cell which is symbolically rendered as a barcode
In this poster, we see a girl chained to a banknote symbol and it has become like a prison for her and she is shouting and wants to free herself from this captivity, by doing this work, I wanted to show that most of these women are They have been exposed to human trafficking and they are being hit the hardest, and unfortunately We see that they look at them as commodities and put prices on women and girls It is our duty to stop them and inform the people of this harm.
