Sold Into Slavery
Sold Into Slavery — in a salon setting

Story

“Sold Into Slavery” is an artwork about the slave trade and the sorrow of suffering. Recalling the Biblical Joseph, sold into captivity by his brothers, this image reminds us that, for thousands of years, millions have endured the stony weight of existence as living property, without help or hope to call their own. Like human rocks crushed by the greed of others — like holy mountains ground into sand — many have been forced to endure the worst: beatings, starvation, rape, a distorted denial of their humanity. As we consider a life lived without agency, the doomed man stands on the sand, awaiting his fate, as the waves roll back freely into the sea.

Your purchase grants you a personal, non-transferable license. Under this license, you may download the file to your personal devices, keep backup copies for your own use, display the artwork on your screens, and print it for your home, your office, or your workplace. You may also print it on personal items, such as clothing or accessories, as long as those items are for your own use and are never sold. Full details are in our Terms of Use.

Your purchase is a license to use the artwork, not ownership of it. Without prior written permission from Melodynk, you may not:

  • share, upload, or send the file to any other person or platform
  • resell the file, or sell prints, merchandise, or any product that includes the artwork
  • use the artwork for commercial purposes, including branding, advertising, or packaging

Melodynk reserves all rights not expressly granted in the Terms of Use.

Not under the standard license. Displaying your own print in your office or workplace is personal use and is permitted. Any business use, including branding, advertising, products for sale, or decorating customer-facing commercial spaces such as hotels, restaurants, or galleries, requires a separate written commercial license. Contact us through our Contact page to discuss licensing.

You may gift a print, not the file. The digital file is licensed to you personally and may not be transferred, forwarded, or shared. If you want to give the artwork as a gift, print it and give the printed copy.

If your file is corrupted or defective, or you were charged in error, contact us and we will provide a replacement, restore your access, or issue a refund where appropriate.
