Once again, they arein front of a photographer. Now nobody dies for them
and nobody falls in love with them. Only their memory comes and goes
every now and then. In their time, they would step into a photography
atelier to eternalize themselves and today I, the photographer, have
stepped into their sanctum to record their photos. When they look at me
from the two-dimensional frame of their photos; I feel I should say,
"Please smile!" and they smile only for a moment and as soon as I manage
to push the shutter I find myself in the atelier; but their photographs
have been there for years and the whole affair takes place only in my
imagination.
The photographs of the present exhibition have been taken during the
years 2005 and 2006 in one of the old graveyards of Qazvin. Some of the
photos are more than 50 years old. No modification has been made on the
photographs.
