Cascading shapes make their mark in "Under the Moon Bean", 2019 which appear against the backdrop of a splintered red, green and white kilim-like pattern devised by the artist using ‘brace’ brackets from programming languages. The round shapes bring to mind grapes – perhaps because of the images associated with kilims and feasts in ancient miniatures from Persia – although their colour and texture is more like the barren landscape of the moon. These round three-dimensional organic forms contrast with the flat digitized background creating two different kinds of space that reflect our own interface with the online world.
