Blackboard entry by Roberto Goya

A Creative Pool project by Roberto Goya (Spain)

The burka, is one of the most powerful semantic objects of this century and thus of the new millennium. Closely related to women in some Muslim societies, causes fiercest critics in Western society which sees it as an object of repression, in opposition to the feature of identity and protection that others see in it. This photographic series symbolizes the journey that makes this object in the figure of a man, in the same way that social meaning of it has been changing since the time it was created.
