This artwork, titled Eye of the Sky, presents a contemporary interpretation of the fusion of authentic Iranian motifs, tradition, and creativity.
The design is primarily inspired by the Shikargah (hunting scene) motif, reimagined in a symbolic and geometric form by Master Rostam Shirazi, with an innovative composition by Alireza Haghighi.
At the center, within the toranj (central medallion), predatory and prey animals—including the wolf and the deer—are intertwined, evoking the cycle of life and the balance of nature.
In the lachaks (corner pieces), birds of prey, while retaining the traditional structure and character of the lachak, form an abstract shape reminiscent of an eye. The lachaks appear as the eyelids, while the toranj becomes the pupil of this eye, embodying the concepts of vision, protection, awareness, and perception.
The combination of blue with warm tones evokes the interplay of movement and stillness in the sky, creating a visual balance between dynamism and tranquility.
