Essay Writing

The story of this picture book is about a little girl who looks for a super specific title to write an essay. Her teacher at school tells her to write an essay, but she can’t find a good title to write about. Actually, she sees strange and magical subjects every day, but she thinks that they are so normal. For instance, one day she sees a dinosaur in front of their home, but she sees it’s normal! Another day she sees a circus as soon as she opens the door, another day she sees a huge spaceship but none of them attract her attention. This book is an interactive book. It’s written by Payam Ebrahimi and illustrated by Narjes Mohammadi.

Bird Woman

At first, I was inspired to start this project by looking at the women of Iran and their all-too-visible barriers, but the more I delved into this matter, the more questions arose in my mind. I began to see a greater number of invisible ropes that have not only been tied around the women of Iran, but also all women and men around the world. These invisible ropes have taken away the freedom of both people and countries by restricting free movement. Free movement of people, that is the freedom of thought and action, is the deeper definition of freedom, not just the superficial meaning. The invisible, freedom-restricting ropes are called by different names in different countries. In some places they are called “religion”, while in other places they take the name of “tradition”, or “politics”. These ropes even take on different colors, shapes, and smells, but they can be identified by the fact that their appearance makes us forget about the real meaning of freedom.
