The fantasies are not real | Mexico
The poster was made based on photography, the objective was to simulate balloons with the elements, which represent the illusions that are often used to deceive people to abuse their trust.

Let us work together to protect the small fires so that they can grow up healthy and safe. Let us use love to light the shadows in our society and fight human trafficking.
This poster started with a painted portrait of my mother. I wanted to add birds to symbolize freedom, the birds breaking away from the chains add more depth.
The rope formed a woman’s face in the darkness. Rope is the main tool of human trafficking. The powerful visual graphic attention to the problem of HUMAN TRAFFICKING. So “You can show that you care, Keep that love in your heart.”
Sexual exploitation still exists, but women are no longer the goods sold at will in the past.Now they are a sharp knife cutting through the black sky!
On the poster you see a self-made photo on which several boxes are stacked on top of each other. I started looking for the countries where the most human trafficking takes place, after this I looked up the most common girl names from these countries and then put them on the box instead of the name of the object inside. I did this in a graceful, handwritten font because it reminded me of learning to write clean in school in the past.
In my poster I wanted to represent the hide side of human traffic, by putting the font in the shape of the shadow of the men.
In the foreground you can see a man, naked and striate of shadows, like some part of his body was missing, inspired by the sentence “You can see a mans face but never his heart”
Behind, the words “stop human traffic”, mould the shape of the man’s shadow, to remind people that it is something hidden in the dark and at the same time a sad reality.
Some ridges are placed all over the poster, they are in the shape of the ones on the man’s body and they represent furrows of blood and pain.
I did a photography poster. In a poster you can see a girl drowning in a bathtub (me). Words on her shirt are taken from the song of this contest. In this work I want to show the fragility of each person and how easily accessible we are. We can’t trust anyone. Let’s be safe.
The poster seeks to addresses the main reasons why human trafficking occurs. The people being trafficked become a commodity and thus fall into the background as mere objects, whereas the reasons they are trafficked become more important thus come to the foreground, similar to shopping list, fulfilling ‘customers” desires. This transaction is devoid of feeling, remorse and humanity. It is as cold and calculated as a visit to the supermarket.
