The Night Alive- Flowing Collection Drawing

When I wake up in the morning, I bring my dreams with me to the breakfast table. When life feels overwhelming, I retreat into the black holes within me, playing there until I’m ready to emerge again. As I walk, I observe the interwoven nature of lifeless objects, lights, and living beings. Then, with a mind larger than usual, I start to draw. This is when I am at my sharpest and most vibrant self. Exploring the mundane and observing life moment by moment is my strangest yet most essential mission. To experience that sharp and delightful state, I wander through parks, cafés, meadows, forests, restrooms, shopping malls—anywhere you can imagine. My historical memory flows through time, intertwined with rural motifs, geometric shapes, and the bold, vegetal hues of handwoven carpets belonging to my homeland, Iran. Have you ever seen lions, gazelles, rhombuses, or Shah Abbasi flowers passing by you?
