Art Installation - Please check out the video uploaded related to this peice

While attempting to complete a photography assignment for school, 
I was issued two misdemeanors ticket for taking a photo of 
the interior of the Long Beach veteran’s hospital.

Being from Iran and having two federal cases make it impossible 
for me to get my residency in the U.S. I had to go back home. 
So after hiring a lawyer, and going through a lot of paperwork and anguish for few months, the court dismissed the case based on 
racial profiling.

The wallpaper is all the work that i went thro ugh to dismiss the case. 
The framed picture with two politicians and the U.S flag (painted by 
Jasper Johns) is the actual picture that I took. The blew up citations 
are also framed and included. The video is projected on the front wall conveying my feeling while going through this hassle.

This project is a critique of social, political and educational system 
in this specific time and place.
