Description: This black-and-white painting uses Kufic calligraphy to create the image of tall trees standing in the distance. The trees are constructed through the geometric forms and rhythm of Kufic letters, transforming written language into a landscape.

The composition is deliberately reduced to black forms against an entirely white sky. The open white space creates a sense of distance and silence, while the vertical trees become a quiet presence within the landscape.

The title, I Was Looking for Something in This Village, is taken from a poem by the Iranian poet Sohrab Sepehri. The work reflects the poem’s sense of searching and looking beyond what is immediately visible. Here, the act of searching is expressed not through a literal scene, but through the transformation of letters into trees and an imagined landscape.
