Sympathy for the Devil
Since I am living in a western country I have been feeling freedom in every aspect of it. But the whole pains I have struggled, I still can’t forget them or let them go. So I decide to heal myself with the help of photography. I am trying to visualize my fears and thoughts, my dreams and past in the hope of getting closer to know myself. To forget what the others will think if they found out my real identity because I don’t want to stay in the closet for the rest of my life. I just want to let the devil free.

That is the policy of the Iranian government against LGBTQIA+ community of Iran. We just don’t exist for them.
