It is night time, simply we are the other side from our beautiful sun. Almost everything seems to be shadowy, calm and quiet. Yet in the darkness somehow there is a kind of a hidden smoldering situation due to what we unfortunately have around us in our corrupted society. It also marks the undeniable passing of time. It is night and therefore it is dark and difficult to see; that is why there are lots of eyes in my drawing. There are also strange shadows that look like strange primitive animals; all those ominous chiaro scuros that sometimes are seriously frightening and scary to pass through. Then there are all those dim lights here and there that end up nowhere and do not really help to see and recognize objects or the reality of them. Yes, these are all what we perceive as reality during the night, even if in reality we constantly live, work, sometimes play in it, and also enjoy it. In this design of mine the mysterious benevolent group of women in black robes are close to a modern sanctuary to the right. To the left there is a beautiful blond woman under the tall building with her white chiffon clothing dancing in the air who carries the candle of light, which is a torch of faith, hope and humanity, for us! They are eyes that help us take care of ourselves, and to try to see the unknown. The eyes try to help us to not have strange surprises. They help us in the night that is contrary to the beautiful day when the glorious sun is shining, and we see everything clearly. We should be honest and admit that, without any doubt, the beautiful night needs more attention and we need to be careful. We should accept that it is tough and it is totally different from the daytime. It has many unknown angles, dark corners and unexpected moments of sudden and ugly surprises than we don't wish for at all.

Amir F. Tehrani was born in Iran. At the age of eighteen and after finishing high school he participated in mandatory military service, where he was trained as a medic in the Military University of Iran. He then traveled to remote, outlying villages where he provided critical medical services, performed minor surgery, and actually delivered a number of babies. After that, he traveled to Venice, Italy to further his education in architecture at the L’Universita’ di Architettura di Venezia, and later at the Royal Academiy of Fine Arts, where he specialized in theatre, set architecture, art directing and other fine arts. This study included optics and directing for theatre, after which he worked as an assistant to Notable Maestro Orlandini in La Fanice opera house in Venice. He even had the fortune to work as an assistant to the great Mark Chagall, for the production of Mandragola, the masterpiece of Machiavelli. Returning home to Iran for five years, he was hired by National Iranian Radio and Television (NIRT). He was the set architect, production designer and art director for many productions, either on the sound stages or on real locations. These included: • Daii Jan Napoleon written by Mr. Iradj Pezeshkzad, and directed by Mr. Naser Taghvaii. It was a famous Iranian Television serial, consisting of 18 hours. It is considered the best Iranian serial, even today, and was produced by NIRT. He received the golden cup of the NIRT as the best set architect and production designer for that serial. • Safar e Sang, (Journey of the Stone), a film directed by Mr. Masoud Kimiaii. • Bon Bast, (Dead End), a film directed by Mr. Parviz Sayyad, who still is active in the field of theatre in Los Angeles. • Il Viaggio di Pietro della Valle, (the travel of Pietro della Valle) it was about an Italian noble- man from Padua, and his travels to the orient. This was an Iranian-Italian production, filmed mostly in south Iran, partly in the famous city of Isfahan, the ex-capital of Persia, as well as in the Persian Gulf on some of its beautiful islands. The film was a period piece, belonging to the era of the great and famous Shah Abbas, one of the Persian kings.
