prostitution it’s all of the above what I mentioned.
It’s equal to snatching away a person’s rights.
Violating all laws of life. My heart broke every time
I read a story of someone who went through these
traumatic experiences. The worst shock I got
was when I learnt only 2% of the victims ever get
rescued and human trafficking is a million dollar
business!! How can you sell what is not yours?
How can you steal a kid from his/her mom? Don’t
these people have hearts? These are the questions
which keep haunting me ever since I learnt about
the heinous crime people commit every second
in this entire world. I just wish people open their
eyes and see that if it’s not their daughter or sons,
that doesn’t mean they don’t have hearts and
souls. We all should Help them if we find anything
not right in front of us, or in our neighborhoods,
we should act immediately and report about it
to authorities and try to save a soul in all ways
possible. We should all fight together towards this
social atrocity!
How important is it for an artist to be a voice
for the community?
TG: It’s very important because we make up the
moral fabric of society. We should not only be a
voice for a community but for mankind. Whatever
affects us we need to speak up & be heard; paint
&become iconic; fight for whatever you believe
in & make your message transcend beyond the
borders of your nation. That’s the main reason why
I like to target specific issues or subjects that may
be regarded as taboo. Creativity takes a lot of
courage. So to all aspiring artists-- do not become
a prisoner of yourself, style, reputation or success.
Release art as if you are all freedom fighters
fighting for one common cause which is to make
the world a better place via talent & art.
I would also like to thank my friend Shachi
for believing in my vision of making art with a
message gift wrapped for the viewer to unravel. n
