Nike, a multi-billion dollar company, operates by exploiting children, women, and men in foreign countries. They have broken child labor laws and place harsh work conditions upon these workers. They have been accused of 50 cent hourly wages, physical abuse, mental abuse, and lengthy work hours. These harsh conditions produce a dangerous, abusive, and controlling environment that hushes the worker's ability to stand up for themselves. If they speak out, they are fired. Nike is exploiting the poor in foreign countries because they are able to increase their profits exponentially at the expense of those that cannot demand respectable conditions. I decided to take on this topic by displaying a large Nike shoe being help up by children, men, and women that are on their knees. They look like they are being crushed underneath this massive shoe which represents the worker's lack of respect. They are depicted as slaves holding up this material item that appears to have more importance than they do. 

I had a difficult time putting this together because the Nike sign needed to be the focal point which is why there are two white bars connected. Also, I had to tape on the little pieces of paper that fell off in order to outline the worker's silhouette correctly. I plan on spray painting this onto a T-shirt in order to spread the word of the negligence and abuse taking place behind this popular brand.
