The artist created this piece on the day of Ayatollah Khamenei’s death, transforming a moment of historical significance into one of reflection and emotional release. Tears of joy mingle with deep sorrow, honoring the countless innocent lives lost over the years while embracing the possibility of renewal.
Titled As Long as There Is Breath, There Is Hope, the work features Persian calligraphy rendered in the colors of the Iranian flag. Flanking the composition are a golden sword and a radiant sun, symbols of strength, resilience, and enduring light.
