From headscarves to stadium seats, Crafted Liberation celebrates Iranian Women's resilience in the pursuit of gender equality.

Crafted Liberation is an initiative showing unity and empowerment among women of Iran. With headscarves donated by Iranian women globally, we transform them into stadium seats, telling stories of their struggle against political and societal constraints. This exhibition calls for awareness and solidarity for women in Iran and beyond.
