Children of the خور (East/Sun) is a short zine created during a week long Fanizne workshops
with Amit Ben Haim from HELL NO publication & distribution (teacher in WIZO Haifa Design Academy).
The theme of the workshops was EAST, so I focused on the East as a place where the sun rises every day.
Slavic tribes mostly inhabited eastern parts of Europe, which is why I described them as "Children of the Sun".

This lead me to the exploration of the legend of Svarog - slavic god of the sun, to whom I devoted this publication.
His name presumably comes from Persian word "hvar"خور (meaning East or Sun),
that's why I used it in it's original lettering as a part of the title.
Enjoy the story of Svarog!
