Statement: The artwork is inspired by a social protest movement that emerged in Iran, where slogans expressing objections related to women and freedom were written on walls. The artwork captures the slogans on ceramic tiles resembling ancient Iranian ceramics and aims to promote freedom of expression. The installation comprises 56 ceramic tiles installed on a wall, with a video playing depicting a white wall being painted black, but the tiles remaining unpainted. The purpose of this installation is to highlight that the truth will eventually be revealed, despite efforts to cover it up. The artwork serves as a reminder of the importance of truth and inspires viewers to stand up for it.
