The Champion for Life™ Art Installation - 400 Symbols. A NEW way to see The World.
Produced by @studentAsim info@studentasim.com
Possibilities is just the beginning...
How it looks
8ft x 6 ft.
5ft x 4ft also available.
The Champion for Life™ is a social idea. It uses the presentation of 400 symbols (multilingualism, 300 languages+icons) to explore: Possibilities. The symbols offer a natural way to interpret, reveal, learn, and grow.
The word “READ” is a central concept in The Champion for Life™.
It’s a forward moving idea, encouraging education, and emblematic for Possibilities — the foundational idea in this concept.
The Champion for Life™ installation has touched thousands of lives. The symbols act as gateways into new worlds.
They reveal many (obscure) cultures, ideas, AND affirm many (invisible) identities.
It’s a new way to see The World. It’s a new way to see yourself.
City of Toronto event
Mural at an elementary school
The empowerment the mural produces in people seeing themselves is priceless. The learning of “the other” is unprecedented.
Why is the installation important?
The mural produces new knowledge. In a polarized world, we need more ways to see each other.
400 symbols leads to many things: See more existence, more ideas. See The World. See more You.
“I can’t do justice to the learning I’ve witnessed through the installation with thousands of people over the past decade. People make meaning in the most imaginative ways. You never know what you’re going to learn next. It’s that profound.” Producer, @studentAsim

Unimagined Possibilities
The history of the Jewish and Islamic people are shown throughout (uniquely through language symbols), combating Antisemitism and Islamophobia. I.e. the presence of the mural fosters dialogue & understanding of said communities all the time.
Are there any Indigenous languages?
Many! From multiple continents! You will find native languages from North America, South America, Europe and Asia. Some still are in use, while others aren’t and are shown for historical and nuanced significance. You will also find symbols and various other languages, including constructed languages like Klingon.
Experiences From Every Major Continent
The mural has symbolic representations from every major continent. There are symbols from the past (e.g. Babylonian), and present. There are also other representations of language like pidgins, and constructed languages like Pig Latin, and Klingon. Others, like Rohingya, are shown but have no formal writing system.
