The Missing Part

The Missing Part, Artist Under 40
The Missing Part
My painting, "Fading Happiness," draws inspiration from a heartfelt Farsi poem that regrets the lack of joy in my country. I focus on the face as a powerful symbol, gradually fading to express the elusive nature of happiness. The poem is:
A child named Happiness!
Has gone missing for a while,
With bright, shining eyes,
With long hair reaching toward the sky of dreams,
Anyone who has seen them may inform us.
Here is our sign: (It means Iran’s sign)
On one side, the Persian Gulf, (Refer to my homeland)
On the other side, the Caspian Sea. (Refer to my homeland)
