• Victim, Survivor, Overcomer: Triumphant – Diad Art

This piece of art was created for the Victim’s Rights Week Art Show in 2017 by a trafficking survivor in our safe house. It was done in commemoration of a young man who was trafficked with her, who succumbed to the trauma by suiciding several months after they were freed. It tracks her journey beginning from powerless/helpless victim, to survivor, to overcomer and ultimately, triumphant! It is a journey everyone of us must make, but powerfully illustrated by this incredible piece of art.
