This weeks submission for Illustration Friday: Contained.
I wanted to explore this weeks theme by trying to capture an asylum seekers point of view within a detention centre and how the Australian government (or any government for that matter) feels they have solved their problems by cramming people looking for a new home behind fences and cage.
I really don’t see how this is an ideal solution for anyone, especially not for the people incarcerated in these centre’s nor the government spending the tax payer money running these shit holes.
There must be a better answer to this.
superb image
Great work, great resolution.
very beautiful
Striking illo! well done.
excellent. sometimes i wish that more of such illos were shown on if – i always feel strangely displaced when submitting there something which is not a childrens illo. thanks for not leaving me alone :-)
You’ve created a very powerful piece with a very strong social message. BRAVO!!!
This is great, love you illustration… you feel the isolation and the coldness. The 3 colors work well and bring an added seriousness to the illustration.
Waw. It’s already though to find drawings on IF which aren’t all love’n'flowers. And this one is fabulous!
