SOUK

Souk, an innovative fusion of a book and magazine, empowers Middle Eastern women by visually showcasing their narratives globally.

Souk reclaims the multifaceted nature of Arab women and provides a platform for their unique stories, breaking free from negative assumptions and stereotypes. This collection features an interview and a staged photoshoot in Astoria, Queens. Showcasing the model in her community, in New York.

If stories about women from our region are left untold, they may be inaccurately depicted by others. This struggle resonates with many diasporic communities and children of immigrants, trying to find their place in a new culture while maintaining ties to their heritage, beliefs, and family. It's about finding a balance between these two worlds or exploring individualism in this space.
