Today is World Aids Day, and in celebration, artist and activist aleXsandro Palombo has released an art series called Hello Boys, based on the princes found in Disney stories and films.

‘Teenagers have not experienced the years of the emergency. For a lot of them the Aids remains something abstract and so they underestimate the risks of contagions,’ says Palombo. ‘There is a lack of education in the families also on this matter. Life is precious and we have to protect it every day. That’s what we have to teach to the youngster. And also remind them to always use condoms!’

More information about Palombo can be found on his blog.
