Forever thankful for the “F” word; my emotional support mantra when the world gets extra. 🫠

Make love not war. 💙

My mother never believed in Mother’s Day. Neither did her mother. As a child, she was told not to bring flowers; some classmates had lost their mums, and my grandmother didn’t want to deepen their pain. I carry that quiet empathy with me. It’s how I honour them; not just on a single day, but always.

Live in truth, with no regrets about what you say or stand for. 🫡

A Century of Women Designers Who Helped Shape Our Lives Jane Hall surveys a century of women’s contributions to design, exploring the ways they have shaped life not only in our homes and workplaces, but in society at large.

For most of its history, industrial design has been a male-dominated field. Since the early 1900s, women’s work in design has often been under-documented. To combat this, Jane Hall features over 200 women designers from more than 50 countries in “Woman Made.”

Once again, I’ve started to believe in the power of manifestation. ✨

My IG explore is filled with Patti Smith, Vivienne Westwood, James Baldwin, and David Hockney.

I must’ve done something right. ✨

Kill them with kindness. ✨

‘What had begun with Britain’s seemingly harmless appetite for tea had exacted a grave toll.’

A heavy couple of days into the year already, reminding me that life is a rollercoaster, no matter how much we try to manifest the best. And that’s the beauty of it, as it shapes us for what’s truly meaningful. Also feeling grateful for the beautiful moments along the way. Here’s to more of them! ✨

تا حالا صبحانه کشک بادمجون سرد خوردین؟ من خوردم. همین الآن. با نون لواش.

ماه بود. ماه.

صبح زود باخبر پر کشیدن «پروانه اعتمادی» عزیز بیدار شدم.

چه فقدان بزرگی.

تسلیت به جامعه هنری ایران و سراسر دنیا.

دیروز برای خودم عیدی چهار تا لیوان شراب نو خریدم. به این زیبایی لیوان شراب ندیده بودم.

نوروزتون (با تاخیر) مبارک.

Michael Wood · At the Movies: ‘I’m Still Here’ Some critics feel the effervescence of I’m Still Here is an avoidance of reality. I agree that something seems off...

‘A title card has told us the year – 1971 – and if we remember that a military dictatorship had been in power in the country since 1964, we may begin to feel a little baffled by all the rowdy joy.’

Michael Wood watches ‘I’m Still Here’: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

And then she continues, through all her stories, to show us how women carve out knowledge, strength, and identity in a world that tries to define them.

2) Her work reminds me of surrealist traditions but with a distinctly contemporary edge, blending mystery with a sharp, graphic sensibility.

1) ✨ Julie Curtiss ✨ I’ve been following her work for the past few years and have seen her rapid rise. Her paintings feel both playful and unsettling, with their exaggerated depictions of hair, hands, and bodies evoking a sense of intimacy and strangeness.

Woman ❤️ زن

In honour of Mahsa Jina Amini… Today and every day, I stand with the brave and resilient women around the world who fight for their rights and against gender apartheid. I love you all from the bottom of my heart. Woman. Life. Freedom. 💪🏾✨🕊️

2) Like many women artists of her time, she remains overlooked; a reflection of the gender gap in the art world.

This is one of her works (Untitled, 1968), currently on view in the Shadow Self exhibition at Thaddaeus Ropac, London.
