Artwork Title : “Stop Child Abuse”
Artist Statement :

Why am I choosing the egg as a metaphor for this artwork ? From the research and we knew that egg is a weakness thing. So I using the egg to represent the kids/child, they are easy to destroy and they are weak, they need protective not ABUSE !

The White background is to represent the Purity and Innocence of the child. The Crack that came out when clicking the egg is to represent the damage the prison that hurt to the child. The crack won’t recover, if its recover but the damage still remain inside the mind of the child. The sounds when clicking the egg is to represent the pain of the child is a kind of respond when you abusing a child.

The typeface that I use in this artwork is “Syntax”. The classes of this typeface is humanist. So this can be represent as a human(Child). The Blue ribbon is a awareness ribbon that for Stop Child Abusing purpose.
