Opening reception:
May 2nd, 2010, 2-6 pm
Four photographers present the experience of various women through diverse perspectives framing moments and emotions ranging from ecstasy to agony. The group collaboration is inspired by the poem Cold Season by Persian poet Forough Farrokhzad.
In the spirit of Contact 2010’s theme of Pervasive Influence, we the artists hope, through means of subject, to contribute to the area of socially concerned photography. Images of women in contrasting societies (specifically the east versus west) shall provide an interesting outlook on diverse contextual issues related to politics and culture.
