拍品专文

"Perhaps the only mentality of an outsider about the Iranian woman is a black chador; however I try to portray all the aspects of the Iranian women. The duality and contradiction of life provides the motive for me to display this contrast: a woman who one cannot say to what time she belongs; a photograph from two eras; a woman who is dazed; a woman who is not connected to the objects in her possession. It was very natural that after marriage, vacuum cleaners, pots and pans find their way into my photographs. The woman, here, is convicted of a daily repetitive routine and for this reason I named the series "Like Every Day. The photographs are not authentic documentations but deal with current social issues."
(Shadi Ghadirian)
