Artist’s Statement: In Arabic, “Zikr” means remembrance or to remember. This body of work is a visual reflection of this journey; the process of remembering a face (a state of being) that has been forgotten. Each piece is composed of a single line of poetry by a Persian Sufi poet, which is written over and over in calligraphic style.
"I’m drunkenness, and my essence is the wine of love
Now tell me, what could we expect from wine other than drunkenness"
