The forms took shape through improvisation over the flames, twisting the 11mm glass into soft loops. The two ruby red tubes are filled with argon gas, creating a luminous hue of red with a jewel-like glow. Once illuminated, the pieces were arranged together to emphasize the calligraphic nature of the medium.

"Loom" (2017)
Variable height x 4’ x 2.5’
Neon, steel cables, wire, transformer, rubber caps, Persian rug.
Installed at the Washington Project for the Arts, DC
Loom is an architectural response to the limbo of feeling threatened within your home(land). A Persian rug from my childhood home lies on the floor and a red neon rectangle of the same dimensions floats overhead. I am Iranian-American, even if I feel as though this part of myself is still developing, and the piece is meant to encourage people who may not experience this existential threat to stand under the red aura.
This piece is displayed in the exhibition "Now More Than Ever" at the Washington Project for the Arts in Washington, DC.

"Preventative Patrol" (2017)
9' x 21' x 2"
Installed at VisArts, Rockville, MD, for "Cultural Platforms for Resistance."
Preventative Patrol consists of two blue neon tubes that represent the unblinking blue lights on Metropolitan Police Department vehicles in Washington, DC. Former Police Chief Ramsey implemented them after meeting with the Israeli Defense Forces and they are officially an attempt to raise the visibility of the police in communities and deter “would-be criminals.” But the lights remind even innocent residents that they are constantly being watched and are in the presence of heavily armed police forces.
