To me the bird symbolizes freedom and flight towards a new beginning. The orage circle represents the sun at sunrise symbolizing a new beginning. The blue of the bird makes it stand out since it is a complementary colour to orange.

My Logo is showing the horizon of a new start and the hands is showing support.

In this logo, the black chains represent the individual during his recovery and while going through difficult times to face the society around him. The white chain represents freedom from all the pain. The individual is sliding on a rainbow of happiness, freedom and love. The figure is representing the individual and also the horizon.

Artist: Sumaya Ben Saad
Age: 12

The perspective lines testify to the horizon that leads to new life. The design does not show the end of the horizon as it is as cryptic as it is after all our lives. The lively color s complement the theme of the logo and the simplicity of the design are a symbol of how we always need to simplify the complexity of human life to live more in peace and serene in and with ourselves.

The circles represent the diversity of people that live together. We cannot live alone and we all depends on each other. No man is an island therefore if we try to live all together in harmony it would be such a happier world like the circles we all move around together and interact with each other.

Artist: Gianluca Grech

I chose to draw a hand as it shows how we lend a hand and help others. It is a helping hand. Inside I drew an eye, as if someone is leading to new life beginning . In the eye there are two people walking towards a sunrise. The sunrise is symbolizing a new start to a new life. You can also see the horizon.

Artist: Julia Frendo

My logo explains the experience as one leaves somewhere,where they were confined and felt trapped. It explains as somebody walks through into a new world by lifting the sky as thought it where a sheet and stepping into a new world with new people.

Artist: Ellie Holland
Age: 15

I made a bridge because the person who is being helped is sort of crossing a bridge into a new and better life and the sun is for a new happier life.

Artist: Nina Zammit
Age: 13

My logo tells a story of 3 fish which were in a small glass, but one of them jumped out wanting to land in a big clean bowl. I choose to draw this as it shows the ambition and courage to actually jump out of this bowl and land in a better place.

Artist: Janine Camilleri
Age: 13

The head, supported by the hands, symbolizes the despair and anguish experienced by those suffering from mental health problems. The exposed brain symbolizes where the problem really lies and the heart reminds us of the power of love. The checkered path the long journey towards mental stability which is sometimes negative and sometimes positive. The rays symbolize our ability to shine and free our inner spirit, symbolized by the dancing silhouettes.

Artist: Jonathan Young
Age: 14

I chose to do a sunrise because that means a new beginning and that's the aim of 'Lejn Xefaq Ġdid'.

Artist: Christina Pisani
Age: 13

My idea is to show a person being guided to a new horizon where there are possibilities, friendship and opportunities. The sun is shining bright as to show the bright future ahead.

Artist: Giulia Abela
Age: 14
 

The picture I have entered has a sun rise to indicate a new beginning. On the sun rise it has people helping each other over the sun. In the sun there are two people on there back to sort of give the people something to walk on (helping them).

Artist: Sarah Mizzi
Age: 13

One person holding another person's hand. Support & Friendship

The World indicates all the people. The Heart represents love of the world

The Logo is showing a man that is lonely in a dull, unpleasant and difficult situation . At the background there is a sunrise which marks the beginning of a new day, a new beginning in life. The bridge is the stepping stone from the dull period to the more hopeful and inspiring life. The bridge represents LXG.

Artist: Matthew Pisani

Artist: Andrew Scicluna

I chose to draw a hand as it shows how we give each other a hand and inside there are two people facing the horizon . There is also a sunrise as it shows the start of a new begining.These two are walking towards a new start.
