Gouache and colored pencil shape a mihrab-like arch filled with an eight-point star mosaic in Seljuk blues and desert gold. A flock of small rose-finches rises through the tiled vault, their spiral flight echoing Attar’s “Conference of the Birds” and the inscription above—Return to Divine Unity. The geometry guides the eye inward to a single golden star at centre, while the birds burst past the border, blurring the line between earthly frame and boundless sky.
