Have you seen September’s cover yet?
It is instantly recognizable to anyone who is familiar with the work of Kuwaiti artist Ghadah Alkandari.
‘Eve Stands for Palestine’ is Alkandari’s act of solidarity with the people of Palestine. It was painted in late October 2023, at the beginning of what would be an ongoing genocidal campaign against the Palestinians.
It is part of a series of drawings, paintings and handmade stickers depicting her character Eve wearing the Palestinian Keffiyah with resolve and pride.
This issue is also about change and transformation that comes with the new season. Whether it's preparing for the school year ahead, refreshing your wardrobe with practical fall essentials, or reflecting on personal goals as the year begins to wind down, September offers a chance to reset and refocus.
Welcome to a new season, and a new opportunity to grow.
