Sometimes civilization regresses and freedoms gained become freedoms lost.

Small correction OP: this work is titled "Mother, Daughter and Doll" and it's one work in her Hijab Series.

'I’m not against veiling – I feel comfortable wearing the hijab in Yemen – but I object to excessive veiling and its idea of the ownership of women,' Almutawakel says. 'It doesn’t really have anything to do with Islam. The solution, instead of covering up women, is to work on the men.'
