Hoda Afshar's "The Fold" critically reappropriates the colonial photographic legacy of Gaëtan Gatian de Clérambault, exploring the impact of Orientalist practices on the representation of veiled bodies. This experimental book features over 960 reworked images and includes essays and conversations that deepen the discourse on cultural identity and power dynamics.
