Photos were shooted in Afghanistan ,inside the Herat Female Prison.
The kind of crimes for which they are prisoned are extremely absurd for a normal society: like abandon and offense to the husband and his family, going out without the husband permission.
Crimes that out of the muslim reality are a normal way of life.
In each of these photos, there is a common line : women do not have their own reality or identity and they are unable to express themselves freely in society.
My target was reporting are they are seen, as blurred shapes black, almost unformed like boxes dressed in veils where its inside “ cannot” be seen or penetrated. A scenario where the ideological black reigns and where the no “definition” of the individuality wins.

My name is Lombard Symone, I was born in Cernusco sul Naviglio, Milan, Italy on January 28, 1978. I started my career as a fashion photographer working for Italian and foreign brands, but soon I noticed that my heart pulsed For social reportage. I did my first job in Ecuador on the issue of street gangs and drug consumption after I continued to produce social reports in Afghanistan, Kosovo, Lebanon and Iraq.
