The Heart of Revolution
Final project for "Creative Strategy for Visual Development with Vahe Yefremian."
It’s the height of European colonization, and the Global Majority is desperate for liberation.
Shahiida has watched colonialism devastate her nation, her family, her home...and even her sense of self.
In the heart of Yemen lies a mystical academy dedicated to training morally-righteous anti-colonial revolutionaries. These aspiring revolutionaries undergo rigorous academic, physical, and spiritual training to unlock karamat, the ability to perform miracles.
Shahiida excels in all but the spiritual. She must journey through Yemen’s landscape to achieve karamat through unconventional means: a reluctant allyship with a mischievous jinn.
