'Today’s Life and War'

From the “Today’s Life and War” series by Gohar Dashti of Iran: “In an image of the couple hanging laundry on a long strand of tangled barbed wire, the simplicity of the flag-like white cloths suggests peace and innocence, while the barbed wire is a harsh reminder of war frontiers.”
