This is about forced labor of minors in the refugee camps in Syria and elsewhere.

"By participating in this exhibition, I wanted to bring attention to what happens to the young children and women caught in a war, living in camps that are unsafe and violent and where their rights are repeatedly violated, including through forced marriage and labor, the denial of schooling, and sex trafficking of mostly girls and women."
