Gmae Play
“Children’s play” is a satirical illustration of working conditions in factories, and aims to draw attention to the repetitive, unnatural, inhumane conditions in sweatshops. Also, the game makes fun of so-called scientific management, and questions the idea of rationalization in society. The most inhumane part of production has been hidden, far away in factories on locations that are rarely visited even by the press. This game shows the hidden source of our products. The products sit on shelves as if they have emerged out of thin air with the aura of “cuteness,” “coolness,” “trendiness,” etc. All products are made by human hands from raw materials that come from the Earth. Consumers are often unaware of the source of products, as the whole production process is obscured by media and the consumer culture. Now when the discourse of human rights and the environment are in focus, we must closely look at the way we organize our economy.In addition, the game depicts children to draw attention to the fact that there are 168 million children who are categorized by the International Labour Organization as child laborers, which is 11 percent of children between the ages of 5 and 17. The problem is global, which means the solutions must be reached through full international accord.
