From Dust to Wind

From Dust to Wind

Artist
Leila Farsi
Description
Acrylic and gold leaf on canvas.
The text presented in this artwork is the English translation of a quatrain by Omar Khayyam, the Persian poet, philosopher, and mathematician. In this poem, Khayyam reflects on the passage of life, from childhood and learning, through moments of pride and mastery, to the ultimate realization of human transience. The verses speak with clarity and restraint about the fleeting nature of achievement and the inevitability of impermanence.
