Success !

After several classes I have finally finished my T-shirt design.

The assignment was to choose a Right from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. I chose number 9, " No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile"
The idea behind my design is that, if you are younger, and have objects on you while walking or with friends or when ever.. that you are always being watched, people always think you are going to do something bad and cause mischief. I decided to use spray paint cans as the objects because as a graffiti artist, i know what it is like to get hassled by the police for having these objects on. Even markers can get you questioned and held just for having one on you.

The camera symbolizes that there is always an eye on you, whether you can see it or not. There will always be somebody watching you, 24 hours, 7 days a week, 4 weeks a month, 12 months a year.. you get it. Basically where ever you are that police can not patrol 24/7 there is a camera to watch what happens. The police symbol that as teenagers, we get hassled a lot for being you and getting a bad reputation. Just because we are young, and want to live a fun life does not mean it is full of mischief.

Well that's all for now, Thanks!
