Women have always been recognized by certain criteria through history. By their beauty, attraction, and sexiness which have been described by some characteristics. As Blanchot says the word "woman" gives a certain meaning to a human being. A creature that is much more than what world known her to be. "This is not a woman" series aim to show a new eroticism, to delete a woman as we know her and create her again. All the works are self-portraits, reflecting my very own feelings as a woman, my social limitations and my freedom of thoughts. In spite of the fact that most of these feelings are due to personal experiences; I guess they can be extended to the general situation of women in Iran and many other countries.
