Description of this artwork
Watercolor painting on 300 gr watercolor paper
In this piece titled “Towards Freedom”, a bird is depicted flying toward a golden circle — a symbol of light, awareness, and wholeness. With its wings spread wide, the bird becomes a messenger of hope and motion, as if soaring in a moment of courage and liberation, leaving darkness behind and reaching toward illumination.
Above the circle, delicately inscribed in Persian, are the words “Woman, Life, Freedom” — a slogan that resonated globally during the women’s uprising in Iran in 2022. This painting was created during those very days, when hearts beat to the rhythm of freedom and art became the silent voice of resistance.
The vibrant leaves and flowers intertwining in the corner represent life, growth, and diversity — as if nature itself joins the bird in a dance, clearing the way toward light.
