Enduring Power

Senses Cultural’s traveling photography exhibition, Enduring Power: The Middle Eastern and Iranian Woman’s Story, highlights the deeper issues and larger statements regarding the Middle East. These 44 images represent a wide range of experiences, aspirations, fears and realities of Middle Eastern and Iranian women from Yemen, Egypt, Bahrain, Iran and Kuwait. A collection of work by Razan Alzayani, Laura Boushnak, Boushra Almutawakel, Hagar Sobeea, Hamideh Zolfaghari, Sara Sasanee, Maryam Saeedpoor, and Mojgan Parsamgham shows an intimate and unique perspective of an otherwise private world to the American audience. Produced by Tata Monfared, Senses Cultural’s founder, and curated by Sina Araghi, a Los Angeles based photographer, Enduring Power was strongly supported and celebrated by the faculty and students of UC Davis.
