A University of Hawaii exhibit features photographs of Iran taken by a student.

Tehran-born Maseeh Ganjali took the photos on trips to Iran in 2010 and 2011. He moved to Hawaii at age 13 and is in his last semester of his undergraduate studies at UH Manoa’s Theater and Dance Department.

He received a research grant award and the Roshan Cultural Institute Fellowship to travel, photograph and conduct research on Iranian arts, history, heritage and culture.

The exhibit is featured in Hamilton Library’s Elevator Gallery and will be on view into the summer when the building is open to the public.
