In this new collection, I’m focusing on the concept of “Love” and “Creation”. The series are digitally manipulated with ink effect. During the past few years, I have spent a lot of time exploring Persian miniature drawings, photography and various other forms of visual arts. I have always been fascinated with poems of Hazef and Rumi and their mystical approach to Love and creation. This collection is called “inception”. In this work, I have been focusing on Hafez’s most famous of poems: Beauty radiated in eternity with its light Love emerged and set the worlds alight In a journey of self-discovery, I have been truly inspired by Molana’s teachings too. Molana achieved a high sense of ecstasy during which he experienced the most astonishing visions about the realities and mysteries of our universe and our life journey. His poetry converges on eternal love and human endeavor in the present and beyond. Molana declares love to be the raison d'etre for the universe. Love makes mountains dance and the whole universe sing a heavenly song of divine unity. Love surpasses all the boundaries of race, nationality, gender, religion, civilization, and culture. As love is universal, so is truth. For Molana, Love is a miracle which nourishes our souls and allows us to soar to the highest state of ecstasy in the majestic journey of life. Through love, all of humanity’s ills can be cured. In his view “Life” is an everlasting journey through time and space within this universe and then beyond in timelessness. For the past few years, I have been closely studying and trying to tune myself with his educations about life and love. This collection is part of my personal journey to find Love. Care Instructions: As with most works of art, this work should be displayed in a dry room and without being exposed to direct sunlight. This is a limited edition of 25 prints which will be signed and dated.
