Description

In this contemporary reimagining of the Shahnameh, I explore the moment of ultimate deception. Ahriman (the Devil), disguised as a gifted cook, presents a fatal feast to King Zahhak. This piece is a fusion of classical Persian miniature precision and modern abstract collage, symbolizing how ancient shadows still haunt our modern psyche. The first of a 90-piece journey into the epic of Fereydun and Zahhak. About the Collection: The Legend of Zahhak This 6-part series reimagines one of the most powerful chapters of the "Shahnameh" (The Persian Book of Kings). It tells the story of Zahhak, a prince corrupted by Ahriman (the Devil), who grows two serpents from his shoulders that feed on human minds. His thousand-year reign of tyranny represents the eternal struggle between light and darkness, eventually ending with the rise of the hero Fereydun. In this collection, I blend the intricate soul of Persian Miniatures with the raw energy of modern digital collage to bring this ancient myth into the 21st century.
