Moonlit Visions, Zari Etemadi, 2025, acrylic on canvas, 36 x 24 in. / 91.44 x 60.96 cm.

Surreal painting of a young woman with an elongated face and piercing eyes, her auburn hair adorned with pearls, an emerald, and floral motifs. A moonlit blue-gray background and a fading fish evoke loss, resilience, and the silenced dreams of Iranian youth, especially women.
