The Seven Gates of Heaven – Purple Edition

Flashy lights and narrow pebble streets bustling with life; this is how Al Hamra Street has become Mohamad Badr’s inspiration.

The art wear dubbed “Lights of Hamra Street” takes you on a stroll in Beirut’s most famous artistic hub, where writers, poets and artists from different backgrounds gather to share their thoughts over a cup of coffee.

This is a street that is ignited by the collective and individual passions of the people who dare to dream and live differently. It will charm you with its lights, life, and most definitely, its soul.

An illustration by Negin Fallah, this wearable artwork unites the world’s cultures and its people in the land of diversity: Dubai.

Showcasing different ethnicities, nationalities and age groups surrounded by Dubai’s most famous attractions, this is a land that succeeded in bringing them all together despite their differences.

Negin Fallah gives you something to think about with this wearable artwork, composed of minimal illustrations to depict one of the world’s major problems: the stark reality of water scarcity.

With subtle details, Negin demonstrates the paradox we are living – the world is drowning in the little water it still has, and the big blue will eventually fade away, leaving nothing but emptiness behind.

An illustration that praises the beauty and authenticity of Damascus. Each motif is inspired by the rich patterns that ornate old Damascene houses and palaces. Using Arabic calligraphy, it states: “Your paradise has one gate, mine has seven”. This is a literary illustration of the belief that Damascus will remain a symbol of resilience and an eternal heaven for beauty and inspiration.
