The issue I picked was child abuse because it is still a problem now in many homes. The image I wanted to create was to represent the child in a certain way which was a teddy bear. I picked a teddy bear because it is a toy every kid has had as a child. I picked the quote to go along with the childhood idea. To show the people not to ruin a little boy's or girl's childhood. A child should grow up care free and happy. This teddy bear has been through hard times. I made the bear represent a child who has cuts, blood (the stuffing), bruises ( patches) , and just really bad injuries a child gets when they are abused. They have emotional problems. Like the bear it is sad and has a broken heart because he don't feel any love and just feels dead inside. I hope that with this image people will be like wow I don't want to ruin my child's life or if the know of someone being mistreated they will call help. |
