Joy resides in simple things: the warmth of the sun on your skin, the breeze in your hair, the freedom of dance within… But what if these simple pleasures slip away?
Simple things define our childhood, shaping our experiences, exploration, and growth. Without them, childhood fades, halting our development.
Within us reside various personas: the playful child, the mature adult with desires, moments of sadness or confidence. On the surface, we embody a blend of these identities.
To reveal our true selves demands courage, requires us to dive deep. Self-discovery hinges on the freedom to explore this life.
Without freedom, nothing is simple.
The story
Mona’s story starts with following the peacock, the Persian metaphors which sent Eve out of heaven.
She wants to feel, experience, indulge in what we call living.
To feel the breeze in her hair, to see the dazzling colours under the dancing brims of sun.
Simple as it seems but not where she lives.
She refuges to her imagination to build what has taken from her, to flee from pain, shame and suffocation.
Her story is a testament to her resilience as she navigated enforced modesty and the suppression of her true self, ultimately shaping her life and proving that the ideas of freedom can evolve into reality when nurtured within one’s mind.
