Woman! Life! Freedom! is an illustrated children’s book by Dr. Roya Zahra, introducing young readers to the Woman, Life, Freedom movement in Iran and exploring themes of freedom, equality, and human rights.
The project came to me after Roya discovered a series of typographic graphics I’d created in response to the protests in Iran. As an Iranian-Canadian designer, the opportunity to contribute to this story felt especially meaningful. Collaborating with the author and illustrator Parisa Pourhosseyni, I designed the book from cover to cover, using expressive typography to emphasize key words and drawing colours directly from the illustrations to create a cohesive visual narrative.
Bringing together three women of the Iranian diaspora across three countries, the project offered me a meaningful opportunity to contribute my creative skills to a cause close to my heart.
