A magnificently illustrated book showcasing the work of twenty-three contemporary women photographers from Iran.


Breathing Space showcases the work of twenty-three women photographers from Iran and their diverse approaches to their craft. Exploring a range of photographic styles and genres, they record the past and present upheavals of their homeland as well as tackling subjects such as the nature of memory, the tension between tradition and modernity, and the scars of conflict and loss. Whether documentary or conceptual, these images have global resonance and speak of the power of women to shape the world.
