More information 

The painting draws inspiration from the renowned Persian poem "Beyond the Seas" by the celebrated poet Sohrab Sepehri. The poem is as follows; 

I’ll build a boat, I’ll set it afloat. I’ll get far away from this weird land where there’s nobody in the woods of love to wake up the heroes and the heroines. The boat is devoid of fishing nets and my heart does not covet any pearls. I will sail on. I will fall in love neither with the blue of the seas nor with the mermaids that emerge and cast their spell on the lonesome fishermen. I will sail on.

I will sing, “Far away one must get. Far away one must go.” The men of that city did not possess any myths. The women of that city were not as plentiful as grapes. No mirror reflected happiness over there. Even the puddles did not reflect the faintest light. “Far away one must get.

Far away one must go,” sang softly at night. And now it’s high time the windows sang their songs. I will sail on, I will sing on. Beyond the seas, there’s a city where the windows look out on revelation. The roofs there house the doves that contemplates the fountain of human intelligence.

There’s a bough of knowledge in every child’s hand in the city. The people there look at a wall as they would contemplate a fire ablaze or a pleasant dream. Their soil can hear the music of your senses and the wind carries the sound of mythical birds.

Beyond the seas, there’s a city where the sun is as wide as the eyes of dawn worshipers. The poets there are the inheritors of water, wisdom, and light. There’s a city beyond the seas! One must build a boat.
