Afghanistan’s first all-female Orchestra
The OSJ passionately believes that music has the power to transform lives. It raised funds to bring Afghanistan’s First All-Female Orchestra to Oxford to support their music education. To thank all its supporters, the OSJ asked Williams Murray Hamm to create a commemorative poster. They designed a traditional handwoven rug incorporating the apparatus of war depicting the Orchestra’s incredible journey, commissioned its production with a women’s charity from Kabul, and photographed it to create a poster. The posters were sent in a rubble sack – which Afghan rugs are traditionally dispatched in.
