Women who experience domestic violence are often characterized as voiceless, and this Amnesty Matchbook design by Jonathan Wong aims to change that. Wong's matchbook design was created as a part of a college project in which he had to raise awareness for one of the articles in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
According to his site, Jonathan Wong's Amnesty Matchbook covers Article 5: "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment." Check out more images of the Amnesty Matchbook above.
