We all hear about the social and political unrest in Syria and the devastating effects this has had upon innocent civilians, but how much do we really know about what is happening? Well, this very question was on the minds of the team at Streetwear brand Void, after a family member had to flee Syria and take refuge in the UK. The brand have therefore created a symbolic print, written in Arabic Calligraphy, that means ‘Knowledge Is Worth More Than Gold’, of which ten percent of profits go to the charity Warchild. The charity, who raise awareness of the children affected in Syria, are working with the brand in order to highlight such issues, whilst also raising money to make a change.
