Inspired by the International Day for Elimination of Violence, Palombo selected some of the worlds most notable faces to depict as battered victims of abuse.

According to the artist, who has previously recreated A-listers as Simpson's characters, his goal is to encourage victims to break their silence and highlight the fact that all women can be subject to abuse, even those who live the fairytale life of a celebrity.

"To defeat him you need to use the antidote of culture by educating and raising awareness on Respect and Equality. Each of us has do their part to help increase awareness and to change things by any means."
