Title: Molting

Format: 100x80cm

Technique: oil and acrylic on linen

 

CURRENT PROJECT:

My Current Project includes ornamental portraits and figurative paintings with cuture and Identity being the main influence.

 

The series ‚Molting‘ portrays the struggle I faced as an Iranian woman trying to break free from complex cultural bonds. The inspiration comes from the feelings towards the compulsory rule for women to wear the Hijab in Iran.

 

The pattern of the scarf, generally viewed as an „Islamic pattern“, comes from the Tomb of Iranian poet Hafez and symbolises the complexity of the culture. 

 

The subject wants to experience a new perspective.
