This project is based on research on "
the matter of representing the nature in paintings of Shahnameh Tahmasbi " , which was my MA of painting thesis .
While nature plays a vital role in my everyday life , it was so interesting for me to search on how the nature presented itself in the hands and souls of painters of Shahnameh Tahmasbi .
Shahnameh Tahmasbi is one of the greatest painting books that was made in Safavid Era and in the whole art history of my country ,Iran .
In all pre-historic and Islamic era of Persian art , the nature is represented itself in a symbolic way , so important for the artist and sacred . It doesn't have a superior role compared with human being . It is almost always a messenger of highest world , a sacred world like heaven , and it is represented as great and in details as a human being , but with a kind of romantic atmosphere , so it is in my own life .
I see the nature as a sublime space in real world which has equal value as human being .
In these painting series I focused on this equal value .
