Mohammad Ehsai’s “Eshgh” (Love) in the Raha Gallery Collection/ A Fusion of Persian Shamsa Motifs, Islamic Geometry, and Mandala-Like Eastern Structures

In this work, Mohammad Ehsai simultaneously evokes Islamic architecture, Persian geometry, Eastern mysticism, and modern abstract art. Love appears as an all-encompassing force, and its rotation in four directions may allude to the four cardinal points of the world, the four elements of nature, the four seasons, or even the omnipresence of love throughout existence.
