Death By Gold
Client: Urihi Yanomami
Company: DM9DDB
Year: 2025

Idea Description:

Illegal mining has brought devastating consequences to the indigenous Yanomami people, leading to a severe humanitarian crisis. That’s why we carefully hand-engraved 50 death certificates of Yanomami victims onto illegal gold bars seized by the police. Each bar was then photographed and transformed into a powerful awareness piece — placed in the world’s top markets for Brazilian illegal gold. Sing the petition at goldisdeath.com
