Palestinian Barbie!

I have a photography project about adding personality to Barbie, and to me a Palestina scarf really shows who you are and what you believe in.
A Palestina scarf is also showing personality, what you believe in and who you are, even though your Palestina scarf is full of hearts and stars and in some cute colour, like light blue. Though, what kind of personality a scarf like that shows, can be debated.

And no, a Palestina scarf with hearts and stars on it isn't something I'm making up in my mind. It's actually become super modern in my country, to have scarfs like that.
And if that's good or bad, can also be debated.

When I searched for "Palestinian Barbie" on Google, I didn't find any Barbie like that one in my picture (probably because I had the idea about using that Barbie for this photo), but I found several blonde and blue eyed Barbie dolls with bombs attatched to them.
And they were like... meant to look like a Palestinian Barbie. And that can also be debated, if that's funny or not. If it's funny to make a Barbie like that...

"Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough
For the living
Make a better place
For you and for me"
- From "Heal The World" by Michael Jackson.

Cool, it's one of the best cultural barbies I've seen. For some reason Barbie people don't do so good on some of their cultural barbies.
:iconshouten-samurai:
funny how a change of hair colour does make Barbie far less creepy...

Nice shot. The scarf is well edited-in. Good job finding a doll for it, the Arabic regions are some that Mattel totally ignores.
:iconnilemaster:

Yeah, I know...

That's why I end up using that Barbie for all of these photos... she seems nicer when she has that black hair.
