Abstract/Artist Statement
The recent events in Japan have shocked the world and demonstrated its unpredictable nature, not only this but it has changed the lives of so many and as well inspired others to help to make a difference. This event showed us the unity, care and love that can exist in our world. It has demonstrated a compassion for one another, one that pays no attention to geological location or ethnicity, but purely on the respect for life and well-being. This compassion is what we are tapping into and striving to spread through out the world. We are creating an eight poster series to engage the viewer into reacting with the same feeling and desire to help Japan and the world. We will do this through the symbolic representation of the actual event, increasing awareness and inspiriting insight. We will juxtapose these four images with symbolic representations of hope and support, to inspire change, action and reaction.
