Eyes Against Rubber Bullets
The Eye Balloons are designed as a protest after Angelo Cilia lost his right eye after a police charge with rubber bullets during the general strike on March 29 this year. Now repeat with Ester Quintana, who also lost an eye for the same reason in the general strike on November 14.
This protest devised by the TAF! and aimed to create attractive images able to sneak into the media, thus opening a space of visibility for this conflict so sadly muted. It worked great. Several photos have been published in various newspapers, are also massively circulating throughout the internet.
