Golestan Mirrrors Art & Objects | Mixed Media | 2020
Golestan is inspired by a poem by Saadi, which speaks of unity and the art of Iranian Turkmen jewelry. Each fragment, connected by rings, forms a whole, symbolizing our interconnectedness. Remove one piece, and the image breaks, much like Turkmen jewelry and Saadi’s concept. Golestan is more than just a mirror; it serves as a bridge between the past and present. In my quest for new modes of expression and a deeper understanding of Iran’s diverse artistic heritage, I have conducted a personal study on Iranian Turkmen jewelry. This cultural exploration has influenced my visual language in the creation of the Golestan mirror collection.

As I continually seek new ways to broaden my expressive capabilities, I have also practiced with ceramics and volume. In this journey, I was drawn to the three-dimensional nature of volume, which provides a unique opportunity to explore a piece from different angles. Additionally, clay, this humble material, despite its solid appearance, has a hidden softness and unexpected fragility, allowing me to demonstrate both resilience and fragility.
The ceramic pieces that I present here are more than just a practice; they are expressions of my concerns. They present my perspective on various aspects of life, such as interpersonal communication issues, human destruction, and our daily challenges.
In conclusion, my background in architecture and my graphic vision play a significant role in shaping my ceramic pieces. They influence not only the techniques I use but also the overall design of each piece, enabling me to transform my ideas into ceramic objects.
