Hilal, making props

Before a performance in South Bend, Indiana, Hilal made props for a new act she had created. Being from Turkey, she wanted to highlight the policies being enacted against the LGBTQ community in her country. The painted sheet was cut into rainbow strips for the performers to wear during the act.
