Princess Hijab allegory

It is about a young woman fighting every day for a noble cause:
She wants to “hijabize”advertising. Princess Hijab knows that L’Oreal and
Dark&Lovely have killed her little by little. She feels veil is no longer that white. She feels contaminated. When she was a teen, she eared about movements such as Adbuster. But since 9/11, things changed. Now, the inspiration not only comes from US but only from Middle -East.
Princess hijab goes on veiled, alone. She is fighting for her physical and mental integrity. The day, she wears white veil, symbol of purity. And she puts on the black veil, planning a vendetta by fighting all night long for her cause. With a bomb spray and posca, she is engaged against advertising. Even Kate Moss is targeted. She knows all about visual terrorism! Make sure that all advertising can be “hijabized” ‘caus that’s her fight Jihad is her art. And don’t forget, this is just on her own and at her own initiative. she is involved in any political, religious or advertising movements or organizations. In fact, she is a punk-insomniac princess. This is an artistic fighting, nothing else.

Ma vérité
Je suis une jeune fille qui lutte au jour le jour pour une noble cause:
celle d’hijabizer toutes les publicités de la terre. Je sait que l’Oréal et Dark&Lovely mon tué à petit feu. Je sent que le voile n’est plus d’un blanc aussi immaculé. Je me sent contaminée. Adolescente, J'avais entendu parler de mouvements tels que Adbuster; mais depuis le 11/9, la donne a changé. Les sources détournement ne viennent plus exclusivement d’une imagerie américanisée.
J'avance seule et masquée. Je lutte pour mon intégrité physique et mentale. Le jour, J'endosse le voile blanc, symbole de pureté. Et la nuit, je m'envelloppe d’un voile noir, vengeresse et combative pour la cause (le custom ad). Munie de ma bombe ou posca, J'hijabize la publicité. Kate Moss n’est pas épargnée. Du terrorisme visuel, Je sais ce que c’est. J'impose mon droit de réponse aux publicistes. Considérez que chaque publicité ou chaque visuel hijabizés est un terrain réapproprié. Mon djihad, c’est mon art. Et n’oubliez pas, je ne roule que pour ma personne. En somme Princess Hijab est une princess punk insomniaque. Les lobbies sous quelque forme que ce soit (politique, religieux, publicitaire) n’ont pas droit de cité.
Mon combat est un combat artistique.

very strong works. I am in support of embedding commitment within the aesthetic and vice versa all within the constraints of a theme or dogma which can give the work a grounding as you are well aware...I hope to see more.
