Gaza Strip: Day War and Silk Scarves

gaza strip: Back on earth, at least one person was instantly captivated, according to Hamilton Spectator. I was immediately like, download, print, said C line Semaan, a Lebanese designer and the founder of Slow Factory, a Brooklyn fashion company that began in 2012 with the goal of creating and selling products that raise awareness around issues such as the plight of refugees or the threat of global warming. It showed the lights of the Gaza Strip from above; what the astronaut saw but the static shot did not capture were rockets flying over the strip amid the region's 50-day war between Israel and Palestine. Eventually, Semaan printed the image onto silk scarves for a collection called Cities by Night. This spring, Semaan, who arrived in Canada with her parents in the late 1980s as a refugee herself, will add scarves with images of cities in Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen the seven countries U.S. President Donald Trump named in his original immigration ban in January to the series. The current political climate has provided ample fodder for her creative challenges. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
