To overcome obstacles in life and take advantage of chances for personal development, resilience and independence are essential.
A dove, which is frequently connected to peace and optimism, represents the pursuit of freedom via steadfast fortitude and tenacity. Those who speak out against injustice are resilient, just as the dove soars freely, overcoming hardship.
They become symbols of hope and advancement, encouraging others to fight for greater possibilities and demonstrating that, despite hardship, freedom and the guts to stand up for what’s right can result in profound change.
DOVE BY MIRZA MUSLIC
“We chose the title Dove for this photoshoot. It represents freedom, innocence, and curiosity. We picked those characteristics that fit well for the story of our model Yasi Yari.
A young woman migrating from Iran to Austria/Vienna at a very young age. A young woman realizes with time what her life would have been like if she had grown up and stayed in Iran.
Realizing that the freedom she has now, the rights she has as a woman, her dream of becoming a model, and having a choice about how to express herself and show her body wouldn’t be the same as it is now. Realizing that there are still young girls and women in Eastern countries such as Iran who don’t have a choice, who can’t chase their dreams, and who have never experienced what freedom means.
These are the people Yasi stands tall for. These are the people she is spreading awareness for. These are the people she is protesting for. These are the people she is trying to give a voice and be a role model for. These are the people she is giving hope to.
Yasi is already living her dream of becoming an international model, being booked all around the world, and now spending the rest of the year in China for various bookings. Her story always reminds her of being grateful for life and the chance she got to live it to the fullest.”
