About the Work
Launched at The Houses of Parliament in January 2015 by Cosmopolitan Magazine in partnership with
Karma Nirvana, this promotional cover wrap utilised the plastic bag commonly found around women’s magazines
to drive awareness of the British girls who have lost their lives to ‘honour’ killings. Girls like Shafilea Ahmed who
was suffocated with a plastic bag by her parents for refusing an arranged marriage. An annual National Day of Memory for the British victims of ‘honour’ killings has now been declared at the Houses
of Parliament. It is July 14th, Shafilea Ahmed’s’ Birthday.
