Two chimeras whose upper bodies and heads are shrouded. Their arms resemble rock drills, and their legs hover above the ground like mangrove roots. 

Wars and destruction are like open wounds in our collective soul. They tear deep emotional and existential scars into the fabric of humanity. The work depicts this vulnerability not as a passive state, but as a living response to it. 

This work was inspired by the poem “Bani Adam” by the Persian poet Saadi, which is engraved at the entrance to the UN building:

Human beings are members of a whole,

in creation of one essence and soul.

If one member is afflicted with pain,

other members uneasy will remain.

If you have no sympathy for human pain,

the name of human you cannot retain.
