Amnesty International: Reunification of Families

In this poignant and thought-provoking illustration, the theme of family reunification is captured through the metaphor of jigsaw pieces. Created for a local Amnesty International group, the drawing depicts a family unit, each member represented as a jigsaw piece, symbolizing their interconnectedness and inherent desire to be whole once again.

At the center of the illustration, the family members are portrayed as jigsaw pieces, fitting snugly together, except for the father figure, who appears slightly disconnected. This visual representation poignantly reflects the reality faced by countless refugee families around the world who have been torn apart due to conflict, displacement, and the complexities of migration.

Through the metaphor of jigsaw pieces and the palpable emotions conveyed by the illustration, viewers are compelled to reflect on the importance of compassion, empathy, and the urgent need for policies and actions that prioritize family reunification for refugees. It serves as a call to action, inspiring individuals and communities to advocate for the rights and dignity of all families separated by displacement and conflict.
