Catalogue Note

"This collection is influenced by an ongoing dialogue that affects Arab women's lives everyday. A dialogue that discusses the restrictions placed on women due to local traditions that have become entwined with religion and identity. Identity preservation among all cultures is strongly linked to traditions. As our societies move at light speed to keep up with our changing world, people cling to certain traditions for a sense of safety."
