Princess Hijab, "advertising hijabist with a cause"

* * * * * *


Princess Hijab es una artista "street art". Durante la noche, y con la ayuda de su guerrilla, cubre con velos a las modelos que figuran en las vallas publicitarias. Parece que estas acciones provocan intensos debates sobre el fundamentalismo religioso, la libertad cultural y los sistemas de opresión.

"Princess Hijab knows that L’Oréal and Dark & Lovely have been killing her little by little. With her spray paint and black marker pen, she is out to hijabize advertising. Even Kate Moss is targeted. By day, she wears a white veil, symbol of purity. By night, her black veil is the expression of her vengeful fight for a cause," states Princess Hijab (princesshijab.org) in her manifesto.
