Creative thinking
The theatre world in Iran relegates women to a minor role by means of rules and limitations. This series of photos records how difficult it is for women to make a mark, both on stage and in life. The artist portrays actresses hampered by governmentimposed restrictions on theatrical creativity, content, dress, and contact with the opposite sex.
