Making the invisible visible

Amnesty activists change the face of Cardiff

Amnesty UK is bringing the world's attention to the faces and stories of some of the cases for Amnesty International's letter writing campaign.

Art for Amnesty, in collaboration with the German street art collective Mentalgassi, have created a piece of street art as a creative tool to 'shine a light' on four of this year's Write for Rights cases.

The four faces - of Filep Karma, Natalia Estimirova, Jabbar Savalan and Fatima Hussein Badi - have been pasted onto fence railings. The images are only visible to those approaching the fences - and invisible from front on.
