The Belgian company Sopraco is an important distributor of veal and beef in Europe. This

company delivers meat for wholesale, retail, butcheries and catering industry.
Recently Sopraco has been specialising in upgrading the skins of cows and bovines to manufacture leather. Bovines used to produce veal predominantly are male animals from dairy farms.
Next to nothing gets lost in this process of meat production. Even the animal’s skin is being transformed to a fine product: leather.

Explicit images are not welcome.

Theme Amnesty International: ‘People and idias behind bars

Sitting behind bars, what does that mean to you?
How difficult is it being alone in a cell or with others?
Your thoughts and dreams are they shakled as well?
Is time a gift, an opportunity for reflection or rather a curse?
Are there despite the confinement still positive aspects to this experience?
Is art an option, a voice, a release?
