Brilliant Cyclops

Here is a link to a young woman who recently lost her eye during a protest (Israel vs Palestine). She was just an artist, getting "involved", and a tear-gas missiled canister was shot to her face. She is now at Cooper Union and refuses to have a false eye implanted. She creates her own glasses to cover up her lost eye. Weird irony: she had an EYEBALL as her logo BEFORE this happened to her! What strange things happen in this life that we live, huh. WEIRD and WEIRDER.

here is a link to her blog site:
