Guerilla Survival The illustration shows the reality of people living in extreme situations of violence, war or poverty. Those few western people who live their “best life” profit from all those who loose their homes, families and lives in a capitalist system. The message of the artwork is to rethink privileges and start acting to facilitate life in countries of the global south.
