"Eyemotion" (2008) by Yemeni artist Boushra Almutawakel is a striking photographic work. The piece features a grid of 16 images of a woman's face, each revealing a different emotion through her eyes, despite being veiled. The artist, known for her focus on women's experiences in the Middle East, challenges traditional perceptions of the niqab, emphasizing the individual humanity and emotional complexity beneath the veil.
