Capital punishment and its methods are cruel and inhuman. By the dramatic drawing of a man hanging from a gallows I´d like to call the attention to the importance of death penalty abolishment: a barbaric practice that has no place in civilized justice system. If a judge make a mistake and apply the punishment there is no step back to solve the error.

Death is not justice
Our 2010 project asked for the universal abolition of the death penalty.
For us it’s simple. The death penalty is a violation of human rights.
Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states: “No one
shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading
treatment or punishment.”
How does that fit with beheading, stoning, hanging, lethally injecting
or shooting someone?
