War and Peace Series,  ink, pencil, and collage on paper, 10" x 7" (no frame) 15" x 12" (framed)

Utilizing language and text is one way I find my imagery, I make these works using Persian calligraphy. These drawings emerge from a union between the immediacy of line and the literal properties of writing. War and Peace series depicts my memories of revolution and the Iran - Iraq war. Each drawing represents an event and begins with one word.
