Half a Witness
motor mirrors, aluminum, 180 x 80 x 40 cm

I made this work especially for the exhibition 'Asal' at Etamad Gallery in Tehran . Spying and peeping is what we do when we are allowed to show so little of our body parts. Women count as half a witness. Mitra, an Iranian artist who drove me through the streets of Tehran in the most aggressive traffic that I have ever experienced, told this to me.
