Extinction

About the Artwork

Extinction In this work, the Iranian cheetah is depicted as a mirror of the history and nature of this land; a wounded body that carries within itself fading horizons and distant hopes. Traditional motifs and azure colors evoke a link between national identity and the need to protect endangered ecosystems. This painting is a question about survival, memory, and our choices in the face of extinction. This painting is an invitation to reflection and responsibility; a link between nature, history, and national identity that needs to be protected and revived more than ever. The Iranian cheetah is not only a beautiful subject, but also carries a profound question about the continuity of life, collective memory, and our choices.
