1) Shahram Nazeri / Dirafsh-i Kaviyani: Intro calligraphy by Mahdieh Vali-Zadeh

Dirafsh-i Kavyiani is a video album by the internationally renowned Iranian classical singer, Shahram Nazeri, which narrates one of the stories of “The Book of Kings” (Shahnameh) by the great Persian epic poet Firdowsi. It was a pleasure for me to illustrate eight pieces (calligraphy/painting) for the first track, the intro, of this album.
