The past weeks have been heavy. Watching what's happening back home (Iran), feeling the fear and uncertainty, while being far from my family and frnds not being able to check on them since the islamic regime shut down the internet for more than 20 days now..
You can't check in. You can't hear their voice. Your mind starts to fill in the gaps with all the worst case scenarios... 😔
I made this piece in the middle of all that.
Building these quiet, forgotten places somehow helps me slow down. It gives me a small space to breathe, even just for a few minutes.
It doesn't fix what's happening, but it helps me hold myself together, like therapy.
If you're going through something hard too, I hope you find your own version of that space. Even a small escape can mean a lot.✨
