Untitled (from Hijab Series) 2002

Boushra Yahya Almutawakel's "Untitled (from Hijab Series)" (2002) is a striking photograph that examines themes of identity, cultural representation, and the intersection of faith and nationality. The image features a young woman, her face partially obscured by a hijab, draped in the American flag. The interplay of the hijab and the flag creates a powerful visual commentary on the complex experience of being Muslim in America. Almutawakel's work challenges stereotypical representations and invites viewers to engage with the multifaceted nature of cultural identities.
