This photo On the issue of acid throwing in Iran.
This picture shows the effect of acid on metal and how to become social
objects to the subject.
In today's modern and post-modern world where the tiniest of human
movements and responses are under total surveillance by establishments
of state, politics and power, photos, by outmaneuvering ideologies and
mega-narratives, endeavor to reach another aspect of man, his
responses and the "hard core of truth", and also to leave behind
commodity fetishism and ideology.
