As the shadow of the Taliban has once again loomed over Afghanistan since August 15, 2021, cultural resistance led by civil society has never been more essential. The fashion house Zarif Design, founded in Kabul in 2005, is helping to revive endangered know-how and skills that constitute a truly ancestral technical and artistic culture.
From weavers to embroiderers, a dialogue is established, where each is a link in the creative chain of the art of thread. This catalog pays tribute to these artisans, bearers of a message of peace and hope.
