The Great Illusion

The shoot tells a tale of growing up. Groomed into this world, into needs and wants a true girl ought to have!

We illustrate the unlearning of indoctrination, Shedding old modes of thinking.
We are transmuting the aesthetics structured to overpower us into weapons of reclamation.

We use campy contemporary Arab wedding trends as symbols to play and rearrange the dynamic with those structures.
