Flickr Interlude
This is from an interesting set, described by the photographer as having been taken on Kish Island, which is off the coast of Iran. The photographer, who I gather lives in Iran, writes that “The island is called ‘the cosumers’ paradise,’ due to its status as a free trade zone, with numerous malls, shopping centres, tourist attractions, and resort hotels.” (Not being familiar with Kish Island, I did a cursory web search; this site describes it as “the closest thing to a posh beach resort Iran has to offer.”)
The set, then, is entirely shots of mannequins in the island’s malls. “As an unwritten rule,” the photographer points out, “all the mannequins’ heads had to be covered.”
