RESERVED

Freedom for one person will come at the cost of freedom for others. That's how it works.

The video 'Reserved' made by artist Bani Abidi illustrates this perfectly. While a motorcade with governement officials gets freedom to move unhampered through the city the citizen traffic comes to a halt behind the traffic police blockades.

The artist lives and works in Karachi and New Dehli.

These images are stills from her video.
