  UntitleThis is a recent brief I work collaboratively with Irem Tunken, Inspired on Jorge Luis Borge’s short story, “The library of Babel”, this campaign aims to bring awareness to governments interventions on freedom of speech. the main focus will be on jailed, tortured and killed journalists, touching on themes such as censorship, restriction to information, obedience, exile. A calling for coming out of our “confort zone” encouraging people to speak-up for those who can’t.
