Lost Beauty by Mehdi Zavvar

I am a portrait photographer, but I enjoy all genres of photography as a visual art for communication and storytelling. Photography is currently my greatest passion, and I have been practicing in this genre for about 5 years. In most of my captures, my focus has been on the lives of individuals, the hidden emotions in their gaze, hands, faces, and even their clothing. I have tried to make the photos expressive and break the seal of silence on the thousands of unspoken words of these individuals. I then showcase the dark side of their lives. The sorrowful gazes display the lives of people who did not want to sink into the depths of misery, whose only refuge is the prison of their problems. The lifeless faces of strangers who have no way out other than gradual death carry the voice of these individuals whose unheard silence contains thousands of messages.
