I made this series in Yazd, an old desert city in central Iran and a long-standing center of weaving. My aim was to show the traditional life of its people. I used the Persian carpet as a symbol of Iran’s ancient, traditional way of life, a heritage people no longer know whether to keep or to let go.

Archival prints from this series are available to order.
