Images from My World is a project through which the famed Iranian photojournalist provided photography classes to young people between the ages of 13 and 20 from two vulnerable areas of Argentina, Barrio 21-24 in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA) and Barrio Ejército de los Andes, located in Tres de Febrero, Province of Buenos Aires; popularly known as Villa 21-24 and Fuerte Apache, respectively. For the project, the young people received professional cameras and participated in weekly workshops guided by workshop leaders and coordinators from their communities, which Reza joined on each visit he made to Argentina during 2017. The slogan was for the kids to make a record of their neighborhoods and show it from their own eyes. Reza made the final selection of this collective exhibition, which is divided into two: Urban Voices, at Plaza San Martín with the photos taken by the young people; and Images of the Soul at Plaza Fuerza Aérea Argentina (Torre Monumental) with the photos taken by Reza himself.
