Folon's image of a human-like figure flying like Icarus towards the sun can be seen as a powerful symbol of aspiration, freedom, and the human spirit's relentless pursuit of liberty. In the context of Amnesty International's Prisoners of Conscience Year, the image may represent the struggle for human rights and the fight against oppression. The figure's flight towards the sun symbolizes the hope and determination of individuals seeking freedom and justice, despite the risks and challenges they face.
