The bookends are the product of a nine-month creative process. First process were illustrated designs that best reflected the three social issues linked to poverty. This required studying the appearance of the people who are most affected by such hardship – from their ethnicity and physique to their environment. The designs along with the proper references, were then handed to master sculptors who took four months to handcraft the figurines. Even the base, which serves as a doorway for the characters, received special attention. Once complete, the bookends were used in print, poster and online communication, before being the centerpiece of the in-store event.
