so i found this online- Hoja de Reclamaciones. each icon represents a problem that is found in that part of the world... some of them are easy to figure out while others are more difficult...
global warming
homicide
sexual tourism
extinction
deforestation
terrorism
murder
drugs
exploitation
commercialism
pollution
AIDS
racism
nuclear warfare
thought provoking...

and more...
I wonder what the 2 headed person means.
i had the same question! it is one of the few i haven´t been able to figure out. a couple of thoughts.. stem cell research, or better said, cloning humans for organ harvesting? if it was over japan i would say it was the effects of the atomic bomb.. but its over the middle of western europe. any thoughts?
thing is, when i first saw it i thought.. "that's cool"... nice colours, creative, informative... but the message it tries to convey is not. not cool, not soft colours, not aesthetically pleasing. often not symbolic. just there and raw and real and dying and...
in need of redemption.
