This work has been prepared to draw attention to human trafficking.
A large number of children are trafficked around the world every year. The vast majority of child victims are enslaved and sexually exploited. In my poster, children of different races are struggling with their hands. The red and black fingerprints suggest the blood and cruelty behind human trafficking. I hope to draw people’s attention to the social problem of human trafficking through my poster.
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.
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.
The weep of trafficked children, the weep of families, the weep of society
The goal of my poster is to communicate the urgency and vigilance needed to curb human trafficking. To this end, I used a visual and verbal play on the phrase “cut it out” as well as a minimalist design of a paper cut-out chain of girls with an odd figure looming at the end. The sinister figure almost blends into the poster’s background and this is a callback to the song “Shadows After Dark” as well as an allusion to the secret and vicious atrocity that is human trafficking for sexual exploitation.
The “For Sale” poster was designed with the intention of not only sensitize the public to the topic in question, using the phrase “About 24,9 million people globally are victims of forced labour”, but also to allude to the desvalorization and objectification of the human being.
The ilustration was inspired by the people who “dress” themselves with advertising posters, practically playing the role of a outdoor. That is, treating themselves as if they were an object, making themselves go through inhuman situatuions like adverse atmospheric situations and often underpaid for it.
The goal was to make the poster as minimalist as possible so that anyone, within the theme or not, could understand the message.
This poster represents that we are humans are worth more than a price, and that it is our resposibility to protect one another. The hands holding are meant to represent unity and protecting amongst a community, standing up against the horrors of human trafficking and showing how we are more than a commodity, or in this case “together against human trafficking.”
