EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Tariq Mahmood, we are transported to Peshawar, Pakistan, on the eve of Valentine's Day in 2008. The image showcases a young Pakistani woman immersed in a shop filled with an array of vibrant Valentine's Day cards. As she delicately browses through the selection, her eyes sparkle with curiosity and anticipation. The juxtaposition of tradition and modernity is evident as the girl dons an Islamic veil while engaging with symbols associated with Saint Valentine's Day – hearts and love. This snapshot encapsulates the evolving lifestyle in Pakistan where cultural norms intertwine with global celebrations. Valentine's Day has often been met with mixed reactions in conservative societies like Pakistan due to its Western origins. However, this photograph challenges preconceived notions by highlighting how individuals embrace diverse expressions of love within their own cultural context. Mahmood skillfully captures this moment, emphasizing not only the girl's beauty but also her agency as she exercises her freedom to choose from an assortment of cards that reflect personal sentiments. Through his lens, he invites us to ponder upon universal themes such as love and connection that transcend boundaries. This powerful image serves as a reminder that despite our differences or geographical distances, love remains a fundamental aspect of human existence – something celebrated universally regardless of religious or cultural backgrounds.
