Strong Man

This photo shows a man in his tracksuit in his daily exercise routine. His strong stance and stature, the embodiment of the male-dominated society is offered a stark contrast through a woman in the Burqa walking towards the camera.While the man's back is the focal point of the shot, the female presence on the left side is a strong representative of the local narratives around gender.
