Looking at things differently – with a fresh eye – is a mental state that human being possess. It is about curiosity, about being enthusiastic, excited, passionate, and creative. It makes us see ordinary things as extra-ordinary and beautiful. It makes us ready for awfully big adventures. Matted Print /
This was my entry into last years “Australian Poster Annual” comp which had the theme “In light of recent events” I based this on a report how some local Muslim women here in Melbs recently replaced their traditional hijab’s with an Australian flag. The images were pretty powerful & it forced me to face some prejudices I wasn’t aware I had. The Sydney riots had just happened and what I saw there just sickened me, with a whole bunch of supposed patriots waving flags and drawing a line in the sand on what they define as “Australian” as if that’s ever possible. Just what do you have to do to be considered ‘Australian’ in this country? Anyway, enuff ranting, but this did pick up the people’s choice award, which kinda gives me a bit of hope.

Yemen is a very conservative Islamic country and women are only seen in public if they are completely covered. The style of dress shown in this image is popular with younger women and consists of 3 parts – the balto (the long black robe), the hijab (the headscarf) and the niqab (the face veil). This image taken in the old city Sana’a – part of Yemen’s capital city. Lisa Germany Photography
The original work is acrylic on canvas board 18”x18”. This is a satyrical comment on the attitude of religious extremists to women, using Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” as inspiration.
Hadramawt – Yemen / In rural communities in Yemen, all the adults regularly meet to discuss questions of the civil society (equipment, schools, roads, hospitals, etc.) like in any municipality of our countries. Women are consulted as well as men and they all vote individually about the decisions to take. The day of the community assembly is a big occasion for these women who can speek their voices in public and would not miss their chance by any way !
