half persian rugs, (2003-4)

cotton prints, resin, different dimensions

I was born in Italy, but my father comes from Iran. My grandmother used to create rugs, more than 50 years ago. This is an homage to my grandmother. I tried to make persian rugs,  but since I'm only half iranian, I could create only half persian rugs. The pictures are taken from the ground of my native city, Milano, Italy, but the dimensions are chosen from the tradition of the persian rugs.
