Al-Mutanabbi Street
| Description: |
What happened on Al-Mutanabbi Street is like an old wound for me. It makes me recall what happened in Iran 30 years ago and again once more in recent years Iranian people demonstrating and struggling for the right to vote for democracy.What happened on Al-Mutanabbi Street keeps happening in Iran, Iraq, Egypt, and Syria.My first book depicts a collection of photographs of the Iranian green movement for reform with pictures from Neda and Sohrab who were unjustly killed during these demonstrations. The second book starts with the words: ‘Broken, Broken, Broken’ and wants to show how normal people’s lives, loves, dreams are shattered and destroyed when a war breaks out. |
