abolition

A piece that I helped put together for the abolition art show last night. it was a great evening, with a good vibe all night.

Artist's Statement:
Propaganda, or the marketing of ideas has the potential to be a change agent in our world. A collection of people changing a seemingly insignificant consumer habit could very well change the way businesses conduct themselves and their labor practices (ie. enslaving children). The intent behind this piece is to draw the audience's attention to this fact. It's against our current consumer back-drop (the B&W magazine ads) that has enabled the enterprise of trafficking humans (the children slave stencils) to become profitable. Let us change our contribution to the consumer landscape so that we proactively fight the enslavement of people.
