Jewel Hunter 2

This collection draws inspiration from the magnificent treasures of the National Jewelry Museum of Iran and the varied behaviors of crows I have observed during my walks. Each painting—created using oil on canvas—blends jewelry, nature, and the forms of crows to tell a unique story. Crows, intelligent creatures fascinated by anything shiny, are captivated by these jewels. Whether it is a shard of broken mirror or a gem-encrusted crown, every glint holds value for them. While snatching small objects is easy, larger treasures create tension, sometimes compelling the birds to cooperate, negotiate, or compete.
