Child labor seems a thing of the past, of times described by Charles
Dickens. But fashion industry continues using children as cheap labor in
sweatshops. Many famous brands use children that work almost for free
in various parts of the world. Those children are forced to work as much
as 12 hours a day. The image I made is a portrait of my daughter as a
worker in a sweatshop in the end of 19 h century.
