About

  

Timi Hayek creates illustrations inspired by mythology, history and art on giclée prints and silk scarves from her boutique in Beirut. 

Her work is deeply rooted in historical, mythological and artistic research, highlighting the importance of preserving cultural heritage and the natural world. 

Timi hand draws the entire collections herself. The scarves are hand-sewn slowly and thoughtfully, delicate silk material is individually hand-rolled and hand-stitched, imperfect yet beautiful.
