A Paris based street artist who has been carrying out her guerilla “hijabing” for over five years has started to attract widespread attention and in some cases anger in reaction to her art.  Following a turbulent year on the French political scene, the artist, known as ‘Princes Hijab’ (21) who uses a black marker pen to cover advertising has caused both Muslim and secular circles to get upset (insert throwing of toys from a pram)

Like Banksy, the artists chooses to remain anonymous walking the French subway system painting veils and chadors on models which she believes are too over exposed

According to MENASSAT, a magazine which interviewed her, the art is a comment on ‘today’s mainstream and sexist consumerism’

Personally, I love it!  Anything that distorts the view of a perfect world works for me!  I hope she comes to London soon!
