| Iranian Roots |

A mixed media (acrylic + collage) painting of a giant cup split into two pieces by big white roots, a collage man on the right and a collage woman on the opposite side.

| The image of a cup is split into two pieces by what appear to be giant white roots coming out of the ground. On the right side, there is an image of a topless man appearing to be standing on the cup. The background behind him is golden orange and it darkens toward the top. Some symbols of a Persian rug are left white in the background. On the opposite side, a paper collage woman stares at the viewer with an unhappy face; her background is golden green and it darkens toward the top. Similar rug symbols to the right side exist on her side in the background. |
