The Crisis and the "Great Utopia"

Inspired by the Russian Avant Garde we were invited to create a poster about Greece and the economical crisis which is plaguing our country the last years and the impact that it has on us.
The poster had to be on a topic that troubles us. I have chosen to design a poster about the racial racism because of it growing increasingly in Greece the last years. I have created an infographic
which presents the deportations from Greece only for the first 2 months of 2013 between the 4 main races. Each colour I used represents a race.
 
The text on the poster says:
 
Deportations of the first 2 months of 2013 in Greece between the 4 main races
As a result of the economical crisis growth is the growth of unemployment, the growth of immigration and consistently the increase of racial racism. Because of the large number of immigrants in their country, the Greek people, want even less and less the immigrants and as a result of this their deporation from the country. Only the first 2 months of 2013 the deporations reached 3.037.
A shocking number. Between the 4 main races the number divides to: black race: 1.862 (61.31%), white race: 1.047 (34.48%), asian race: 115 (3.79%) and indian race: 13 (0.42%).

Some of the posters, including this one, were exibited (The crisis and the "Great Utopia" - Η Κρίση και η "Μεγάλη Ουτοπία") in the Museum of Modern Art (Moni Lazariston) in Thessaloniki, Greece.
