EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the harsh reality of life in a shanty town on the eastern edge of Tehran during the late 1970s. The image portrays a mother, her face etched with worry, carrying her child on her back as she navigates through the makeshift paths that wind around the poverty-stricken neighborhood. The scene is one of desperation and struggle, where open sewers meander past houses constructed from mud and reinforced with tin cans. These humble dwellings stand as a testament to both human resilience and dire circumstances. As Iran grappled with political unrest during the Iranian Revolution, this snapshot serves as a poignant reminder of how ordinary people were caught up in turbulent times. The mother's hijab drapes over her head, symbolizing her adherence to tradition amidst adversity. Her eyes reflect concern for her child's future within these troubled surroundings. This photograph encapsulates not only their personal story but also sheds light on wider issues such as poverty and housing disparities in this region of the Middle East. Bill Rowntree's lens captured an intimate moment frozen in time - one that evokes empathy for those living on society's fringes. It serves as a stark reminder that behind every statistic lies real people facing immense challenges.
