2019
Seven years-old kid on the way home from school.
The smell of soap which mother is shredding,
The smell of gasoline which father is pouring into bottles
And the smell of cooked meat
And the smell of cooked meat
And the smell of cooked meat
And a “Revolution”
This smell installation shown in a solo show in Vienna. in the exact day of 40th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution in Iran. The name of this show referred to a very famous anthem of the first days of revolution:
“The smell of lily and jasmine is coming/ Now, from home the scent of spring is coming
The departed spirit returns to its lives/ The people’s beloved leader is coming
If the demon shuns, then the angel shines/ If the demon shuns, then the angel shines
Time passes, more bitter than bitter/The sugar sweet time is coming, again”…
