On a march in town, I saw two small girls proudly holding up a placard. It was made from a child’s plastic toy axe, gaffer taped behind a sheet of cardboard.

I never saw what was written on the front.

I took this photo on my phone and never saw them again.

I found the same axes the girls used, added swords, and so far I have made enough for a small army, just in case they need more in the future.

In lots of ways, this is anti-graphic design because it is not about the message on the front, it’s about the meaning behind it.

This is an open gesture for the two girls on the march to say ‘thank you’ for the lesson learned.
