The Dominance
In The Dominance series, the acute condition of women in Iran has been reflected using the female body as a confiscated object of the patriarchal society. The portrait of these women, devoid of subjectivity, has been shown through an exaggerated made up stage. A cold and lifeless face with revealing eyes, the background, what they have in their hands, and what they wear reveal their emotion and even their condition in the society. In the exaggerated arrangement of the elements on the stage in each frame, there are implicit and repeated references to the contemporary history of Iranian women and their pent-up Fury. Domestic and cultural violence against Iranian women has always been a serious threat to their growth and prosperity. Discriminations in the family and society has been a great barrier in front of them. They even cannot express their emotions. These suppressions and oppressions leads them to many problems.
These days, Iranian women demand freedom with the slogan of "Woman, Life, Freedom". In fact, it is the greatest movement during recent decades in Iran. Iranian Women fix their eyes towards the future, and a hope that it will hold a better situation for them.
