Silent Confession

The artwork Silent Confession portrays an internal struggle, identity, and the weight of past memories. A woman, her body adorned with Persian carpet motifs and inscribed with Persian poetry, stands in a state of contemplation and silence. Her head is wrapped in a delicate fabric, symbolizing outward serenity, while her intricately patterned hands cover her face—caught between release and entrapment in past emotions. The Persian verse on her body reads: “I said that the scent of your hair led me astray.” This line reflects longing, temptation, and the lingering presence of memories that refuse to fade. Her body, transformed into a canvas of Iranian artistry, tells a story of love, attachment, and the journey toward freedom. The Persian carpet patterns—symbols of history, heritage, and cultural depth—merge with her inner state, creating a contrast between tradition and personal emotion. Beneath the surface of the image, a hidden message whispers: “I hold you, don’t worry. The past is the past, let it go and move on.” This piece is a visual journey between the past and the future, between memory and release, between love and self-discovery—like a letter from oneself to oneself, an invitation to embrace, find peace, and move forward.
