Wow.

The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.

Underneath the name Charlie Hebdo is a pile of bloodied dead bodies representing US citizens killed by ICE. The pile of bodies are collected in one corner to represent the stars of the US flag and the streaks of blood caused by them being dragged across the ground form the red and white stripes. In the foreground an armed skinhead officer with an ICE vest is dragging his latest victim with multiple gunshots to join the pile. The world is watching in horror.

They provide a message in one, single image. Photography can only go so far. It takes an artist to combine a 1,000 word statement into one, strong, clear image that does not require much of an explanation. It goes directly to one idea/concept without confusion or study by the viewer.

I am prejudiced since I was a trained illustrator.
