i got back from nyc (for the first time (!!!!!!)) on tuesday night. i went to this photo exhibit at the guggenheim museum and there was this persian photographer and i couldn't help but think of you. so i jotted down her name and the title of the photograph. i haven't had any luck finding a high quality photo of it online, but i'll give you her name and you can look around.
shirin neshat - stories in martyrdom, 1995. she took symbolic photos of women holding shotguns and whatnot, with writing on their hands. obviously, i couldn't read the writing, but i figured maybe you or your parents could.
i found some of her photos, but not the one i saw at the museum.
also. abbas is magnum's main photographer for iran. you have to be a member of magnum's website to freely search their archives. you should sign up to do so, but if you don't want to, IM me and i'll give you my username and password.

cool photos.
My dad translated the writing on the first one you sent me (where the writing is on the woman's hands):
I feel sorry for the garden,
Nobody is concerned about the flowers
Nobody cares about the fish.
The next one is almost impossible to read because it's covered, but the first line on the third one:
Martyr, you've gone up, and I've stayed down.
thanks for the links.
