Description

The women-let revolution in the making is the first movement in the world that has ignited by the Iranian women. On September 16, 2022, after the killing of Mahsa Amini, 22 at the hands of Morality police in Tehran for not wearing her hijab properly. Women started protesting on streets all over cities and towns by burning their hijabs and cutting their hairs off against tyrannical gender-based apartheid regime for 43 years. On September 28, 2022, in front of my artwork and the audience at a gallery in MIAD, I cut my hair to join in solidarity and to protest the brutality of the regime against its own people in Iran. The Women-Led Revolution and their quest for freedom, equality and democracy continues which now has given power to the women in Afghanistan to fight for their rights against Taliban regime. For Iranian women cutting off their hair is a sign of mourning and defiance against injustice. In Women, Life, Freedom Movement is a mournful form of protest the beauty that was decreed to be hidden.
