"It's really creative to design the keyboard in the shape of a knife as a metaphor for online violence. "The two penguins are sketched in a blank space, and the idea is ingenious. "The outstanding works of the 2023 Shanghai Private Colleges and Universities Legal Literacy Public Service Advertising Competition were exhibited at the Talent Training Base of Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts, and more than 20 posters attracted many students to stop and watch.
According to reports, with the theme of "rule of law literacy", this competition collects public service advertisements on legal literacy from students in private colleges and universities, aiming to guide and encourage students to actively participate in the construction of the rule of law culture, create public service advertisements that reflect the spirit of the rule of law and spread the concept of the rule of law, and promote more young students to respect the law, learn the law, abide by the law, and use the law. Since its launch on July 1, 2023, a total of 1,006 entries have been collected from private colleges and universities, and 63 entries have been awarded the Gold, Silver, Bronze and Excellence Awards after evaluation by the competition review committee.
Du Yaqi, a sophomore at the Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts, is the gold medal winner of this competition, and in his work, the striking red is used as the background color of the poster, and in the center is a knife tied with a rope. Du Yaqi said that there have been a lot of incidents of online violence hurting people this year, and he is deeply touched, so he wanted to design a poster on the rule of law with the theme of "rejecting online violence" when he was creating, hoping that everyone can realize that the Internet is not a place outside the law, and a few words easily typed out of the keyboard may be a deadly murder weapon, and we must improve self-restraint and surf the Internet in a civilized manner.
"At that time, I was inspired by an experience of visiting the site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China, looking at those reliefs, I thought of using lines to outline concise and clear. Hu Xiangxiang of Shanghai Vocational College of Industry and Commerce and Foreign Chinese pointed to her own works, and she presented various scenes between people in the form of silhouettes, such as work, Xi, and entertainment...... At the same time, through the distinction of the color of the lattice, the whole work is finally reflected with the word "law". "What I want to express is that as a social person, we will have a variety of rich experiences, and these are ultimately inseparable from the protection of the law, which gives us the right to enjoy life. Hu Xiangxiang added.
The relevant person in charge of Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts said that in the future, we will work together with all brother colleges and universities to build the public service advertising competition into an influential and distinctive brand of rule of law culture in the city and even the whole country, continuously improve the legal literacy of college students, enhance the sense of rule of law for college students, and promote the construction of a higher level of rule of law in Songjiang. At present, the 2024 Shanghai Private University College Students' Legal Literacy Public Service Advertising Contest has been launched simultaneously.
