Death | Taiwan
For victims of human trafficking, it is very painful and close to death, so I used various human trafficking images to form a skeleton, hoping to be vigilant.

In this poster I wanted to express with my illustration that a human face is frightened for being trafficked . The dark chai indicates the dark side of human trafficking and imprisonment . Through this poster I wanted to stop human trafficking and spread the tendency of trusting blindly .
Victims of sex trafficking often left with feeling inferior to others, feeling of being permanently damaged, fear of rejection, fear of being alone, distrust and fear of strangers.
A door is opening, but it’s not freedom that leads to the outside but being trafficked.
Sex trafficking victims can quickly become isolated, withdrawn from family and friends, feel unloved and unwanted caused by their feelings of guilt and shame.
The slaves were stripped of their clothes and lying on the floor to eat. They are deprived of their human rights and treated like animals.
When in difficult situations, we search for people who can help. But unfortunately there are people who use others’ miseries for gaining wealth, to have pleasure or just to play with others’ lifes for fun. They are in disguise, they pretend to care, they promise big and nice things. The question is – are these hands here helping? If they give pain, then no! If they leave no rights – no! Helping hands are kind, they give shelter and heal wounds. And give freedom. Freedom.
Everyone has born with a chain, on the chain of some is their god. For others, the chain is their own mind, but the chain of some is prisoned in the hands of others.
On average, girls first become victims of sex trafficking at 13 years old. What terrible and heartbreaking statistics! It should not happen. I wanted to make a poster to draw attention to this – that they are only children! Find these men who did this – the men who sexualised children, who used them, who stole their childhood, who used their misery and weakness.
My design is focused on a red heart shaped balloon that cast a shadow that resembles the image of a barcode. The heart shaped balloon is a symbol of a free individual, while the casted shadow implies the hidden truth, where the individual is trapped in the market of human trafficking, and is not truly free to live.
