There are often inherently deep ties between the part of the world that we call civilized and what we call wild and natural. Geometry in the universe is the basis for all natural phenomena. As a being that creates civilization, the human can find out the hidden geometry in natural phenomena. Thus, the pure geometric form, which is the product of man civilization, is inherent to nature, the nature that we call wild and uncivilized.
In this collection, I used geometric forms of Persian water pounds in traditional Iranian architecture. That is because water is the source of the formation of civilizations around it. Traditional Iranian architecture places the pound in the center of the yard; it signifies the centrality and vitality of water in the universe. For me, the geometric form shows the order that exists in natural phenomena in the universe. The root form of a plant signifies untamed and wild nature. These two forms, one that comes from architecture and stands for civilization, and the other that represents free and wild nature, have inherent ties together.
