This poster is inspired by the Evolution of Mankind, in this design it shows that the evolution is being stopped by an innocent little boy and girl. These two individuals were placed in an iconic position inspired by the Tiananmen Square incident in which a line of tanks were stopped from proceeding by a man showing sheer courage , compassion and love in the hope that his small act of courage and selflessness will prevent the tanks from mass destruction. The small boy has the "Star of David" an iconic symbol which lost its meaning as a way of identifying a Jew by Hitler much the same as the symbol of Hinduism representing “hope, love and peace” , being replicated and lost in translation as the “swastika” the symbol of death and destruction. The Hitler stance indicated by the man shows that one of the evolution of mankind inspired a sense of disorder and chaos progressing from a weapon in the form of a knife evolving into bombing, guns and more. However in this instance mankind is putting an end to the evolution of power, corruption and racism and inspiring "Peace" symbolized by the innocent pair of children standing up against the face of evil and preventing mankind from repeating itself.
