Solidarity With Iran


Melanie Cervantes
20 x 26
2 - Color, Handprinted, Screenprint, Cougar Double Thick, Printed in Oakland, 2010
I created this print to show my solidarity with the Iranian people in their struggle for freedom and democracy. It features a portrait of a woman juxtaposed against a traditional Persian pattern. There are three languages on the print. Farsi, English and Spanish and all three say "Solidarity with Iran".

It is a beautiful print, very powerful. The text, however, is Farsi, not Arabic. The languages share the same alphabet but are completely different.

This print says "Solidarity with Iran" in English, Spanish and Arabic. The type style is deceiving because if you don't pay close enough attention all the letters look like Arabic script when they are, in fact in all three languages.
