Fathers and daughters in Iran

Nafise Motlaq has explored stereotypes about men and women in Iran by photographing fathers and daughters from a range of social classes: “There are a lot of successful Iranian women in universities, business, art, science, and industry and we should understand most of them have very supporting fathers and male friends in their life.”

Here are two of the fathers and daughters she photographed. More are here
