Bakhtiyari used to be one of the largest nomadic tribe in Iran. They are settled in the cities and villages but still keep their tribal costumes. This painting shows a typical tribal gathering. The people in my paintings wear traditional Iranian and tribal clothes from centuries ago. They ride horses, play music and participate in ceremonies, dances and other social gatherings. Their facial expressions reveal strong emotions.
