TreeShirt & Hamra Expo

"أشعار للمياه" is a project combining illustration and poetry between Soha Awwad and me. Our aim is to integrate poetry into society using different techniques. we did before an animation and now we finished this hand made book. i learned binding techniques in a workshop with Sofi Eicher, tx Sofi :)

we presented the book with other materials in the Arabic Language Festival in Hamra since Soha's poetry is in arabic.

in this festival, we introduced "Treeshirt", another project, derived from this poetry - illustration collaboration.
