The story behind this piece

'Fortune Teller (First Sight)', part of the 'Patch and Mend (Vasleh Pineh)' collection, portrays a serene yet symbolic theatrical moment. Three figures gather around a richly decorated table; the elder, offering grapes, presents a scene that invites reflection on ritual and inherited beliefs. The ambient light softly illuminates the figures, evoking a suspended sense of history and imagination.



The artwork's intricate garments and expressive postures speak to themes of anticipation, doubt, and curiosity. There is a tangible tension between the desire for certainty and acceptance of the unknown, highlighted by the symbolic still life and the interplay of light and shadow. This scene encapsulates a modern yearning for guidance amidst life's uncertainties.



Viewers are urged to contemplate their own experiences of seeking and surrendering. Resonating deeply with collectors and those attuned to introspective and culturally rich narratives, this work layers timeless tradition with contemporary introspection.

About this artwork

Artwork Statement

This photograph captures three figures gathered around a rustic wooden table, draped with a rich, embroidered red fabric. An elderly man with a long white beard and a dark green headband, dressed in a blue robe adorned with intricate gold and silver embellishments, offers a cluster of grapes to a woman seated opposite him. She wears a striking, heavily embellished headdress featuring beads and red accents, and a large, coin-like necklace. To her right, another woman, also in ornate attire including a blue velvet garment and a smaller beaded headpiece, gazes at the grapes. A bowl filled with grapes and pomegranates rests on the table. The background features dark, intricately carved wooden panels and a patterned red curtain on the left, illuminated by a multi-tiered chandelier with blue and gold accents. The overall mood is one of quiet abundance and traditional elegance.
