Ahmad Joudeh
Collaboration with ballet dancer Ahmad Joudeh.
Ahmad’s father is from Palestine and is stateless, his mother is from Syria. From an early age, he wanted to dance. His father forbade him, but he secretly went to ballet lessons. If his father caught him, he was beaten; one time he surprised his legs so much that Ahmad couldn’t dance for a while. Despite this, he continued to dance. In this collaboration we matched Ahmad’s dance skills with a fashion art editorial.
