Statement

This series examines the intersection of the past and present, where memory, mourning, and ongoing catastrophe intersect.

It began with a sudden encounter with a photographer's archive from the eight-year of this conflict, he captured images of war victims, funeral rituals, and grieving recount a violent past; they served as a mirror reflecting our present_an ever-haunted world filled with death, fear, Iran - Iraq War. During various moments mourners. These photographs did not just .and loss

My initial encounter with these images . these relatively old photographs new significance. Scenes of wartime death and | coincided with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in Iran, which gave grief began to reemerge, albeit in different forms, within hospitals, homes, and the enforced distance between the living and the deceased. Just as in the war, many of these deaths could have been prevented, yet the cycle of loss continues.

In this series, I have rephotographed the original images and intervened in them-sometimes by adding color and other times by recreating the frames. My goal is to connect the past with the present and to reflect on the lasting impact of war and mourning in our collective memory.
