Sketches of ideas for Human Right Poster


After a lot of consideration I decided to make a poster to make people aware and think critical about who's really controlling our world. I got very inspired after watching the "Zeitgeist - Addendum" movie about conspiration theories, greed and that few people have the power and control of almost everything in this world, including us.

Human rights, our right to be individuals and to control our own identity, is something that is important for us. Who can we trust and why shouldn't we trust? We can't just be victims of our own society, we have to think and be critical for our own protection.

"Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person" (Article 3, Universal Declaration of Human Rights, 1948)
"Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law" ( Article 6)

The idea is to make people think about what they accept everyday, without questioning the terms. I do it all the time my self, press accept and "trust" in just 2 sec. But what is really happening out there? Who and why do someone want to control us?
